Duration 3 Days 18 CPD hours This course is intended for This in an intermediate and beyond-level course is geared for experienced Python developers looking to delve into the exciting field of Natural Language Processing. It is ideally suited for roles such as data analysts, data scientists, machine learning engineers, or anyone working with text data and seeking to extract valuable insights from it. If you're in a role where you're tasked with analyzing customer sentiment, building chatbots, or dealing with large volumes of text data, this course will provide you with practical, hands on skills that you can apply right away. Overview This course combines engaging instructor-led presentations and useful demonstrations with valuable hands-on labs and engaging group activities. Throughout the course you'll: Master the fundamentals of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and understand how it can help in making sense of text data for valuable insights. Develop the ability to transform raw text into a structured format that machines can understand and analyze. Discover how to collect data from the web and navigate through semi-structured data, opening up a wealth of data sources for your projects. Learn how to implement sentiment analysis and topic modeling to extract meaning from text data and identify trends. Gain proficiency in applying machine learning and deep learning techniques to text data for tasks such as classification and prediction. Learn to analyze text sentiment, train emotion detectors, and interpret the results, providing a way to gauge public opinion or understand customer feedback. The Hands-on Natural Language Processing (NLP) Boot Camp is an immersive, three-day course that serves as your guide to building machines that can read and interpret human language. NLP is a unique interdisciplinary field, blending computational linguistics with artificial intelligence to help machines understand, interpret, and generate human language. In an increasingly data-driven world, NLP skills provide a competitive edge, enabling the development of sophisticated projects such as voice assistants, text analyzers, chatbots, and so much more. Our comprehensive curriculum covers a broad spectrum of NLP topics. Beginning with an introduction to NLP and feature extraction, the course moves to the hands-on development of text classifiers, exploration of web scraping and APIs, before delving into topic modeling, vector representations, text manipulation, and sentiment analysis. Half of your time is dedicated to hands-on labs, where you'll experience the practical application of your knowledge, from creating pipelines and text classifiers to web scraping and analyzing sentiment. These labs serve as a microcosm of real-world scenarios, equipping you with the skills to efficiently process and analyze text data. Time permitting, you?ll also explore modern tools like Python libraries, the OpenAI GPT-3 API, and TensorFlow, using them in a series of engaging exercises.
