Description
Welcome to the Spark NLP for Data Scientist course!
This course will walk you through building state-of-the-art natural language processing (NLP) solutions using John Snow Labs’ open-source Spark NLP library. Our library consists of more than 20,000 pretrained models with 250 plus languages. This is a course for data scientists that will enable you to write and run live Python notebooks that cover the majority of the open-source library’s functionality. This includes reusing, training, and combining models for NLP tasks like named entity recognition, text classification, spelling & grammar correction, question answering, knowledge extraction, sentiment analysis and more.
The course is divided into 11 sections: Text Processing, Information Extraction, Dependency Parsing, Text Representation with Embeddings, Sentiment Analysis, Text Classification, Named Entity Recognition, Question Answering, Multilingual NLP, Advanced Topics such as Speech to text recognition, and Utility Tools &Annotators. In addition to video recordings with real code walkthroughs, we also provide sample notebooks to view and experiment. At the end of the cost, you will have an opportunity to take a certification, at no cost to you.
The course is also updated periodically to reflect the changes in our models.
Looking forward to seeing you in the class, from all of us in John Snow Labs.
Who this course is for:
- Data scientists who are looking to use Natural Language Processing at Scale
- Data scientists looking to build custom natural language understanding applications
- Data Analysts who want to apply about Natural Language Processing
