A Step-by-Step NLP Guide to Learn ELMo for Extracting Features from Text

Introduction I work on different Natural Language Processing (NLP) problems (the perks of being a data scientist!). Each NLP problem is a unique challenge in its own way. That’s just a reflection of how complex, beautiful and wonderful the human language is. But one thing has always been a thorn in an NLP practitioner’s mind is the inability (of machines) to understand the true meaning of a sentence. Yes, I’m talking about context. Traditional NLP techniques and frameworks were great when […]

Introduction to Computational Linguistics and Dependency Trees in data science

Introduction In recent years, the amalgam of deep learning fundamentals with Natural Language Processing techniques has shown a great improvement in the information mining tasks on unstructured text data. The models are now able to recognize natural language and speech comparable to human levels. Despite such improvements, discrepancies in the results still exist as sometimes the information is coded very deep in the syntaxes and syntactic structures of the corpus. Example – Problem with Neural Networks For example, a conversation […]
