    By the end of this course you will be able to structure your Word2Vec model, train it, and also use it in a real-world situation with confidence.


    Word2Vec is one of the most common techniques in Natural Language Processing (NLP). It is necessary for anyone who wants to continue his career in this path. Here our main tool will be TensorFlow.


    TensorFlow is a powerful Python library, developed by Google, that has a great community and is one of the best, if not the very best tool in this field.


    In this course, we are going to learn all the steps in training and Word2Vec model, starting from pre-processing a text corpus, which is an inevitable part of any realistic NLP task, until of course training it using TensorFlow.


    At the end of the course, you have a project. We are going to use our trained model semantically suggest names, based on one or even two given words or names, and of course, with real world considerations. By real world I mean being highly escapable.


    An ideal for students in this course would be a data scientist who wants to progress into the NLP field, or a person with a minimal Python programming background that has just started their path to be a data scientist.


    If you got any questions during this course, do not hesitate to ask the at the Q&A section of the course.

Requirements

  • Python Level: Intermediate. This Word2Vec tutorial assumes that you already know the basics of writing simple Python programs and that you are generally familiar with Python's core features (data structures, file handling, functions, classes, modules, common library modules, etc.).
  • Python 2.7 or Python 3.4, 3.5, or 3.6. Tensorflow is not officially supporting Python 3.7.
  • Our trainees are positive and willing to learn. They practice lessons and send their questions to the Q&A section of the course, and we expect new trainees to have the same spirit.

Description

In this Word2Vec tutorial, you will learn how to train a Word2Vec Python model and use it to semantically suggest names based on one or even two given names.


This Word2Vec tutorial is meant to highlight the interesting, substantive parts of building a word2vec Python model with TensorFlow.


Word2vec is a group of related models that are used to produce Word Embeddings. Embedding vectors created using the Word2vec algorithm have many advantages compared to earlier algorithms such as latent semantic analysis.


Word embedding is one of the most popular representation of document vocabulary. It is capable of capturing context of a word in a document, semantic and syntactic similarity, relation with other words, etc. Word Embeddings are vector representations of a particular word.


The best way to understand an algorithm is to implement it. So, in this course you will learn Word Embeddings by implementing it in the Python library, TensorFlow.


Word2Vec is one of the most popular techniques to learn word embeddings using shallow neural network. Word2vec is a particularly computationally-efficient predictive model for learning word embeddings from raw text.


In this Word2Vec tutorial, you will learn The idea behind Word2Vec:

  1. Take a 3 layer neural network. (1 input layer + 1 hidden layer + 1 output layer)

  2. Feed it a word and train it to predict its neighbouring word.

  3. Remove the last (output layer) and keep the input and hidden layer.

  4. Now, input a word from within the vocabulary. The output given at the hidden layer is the ‘word embedding’ of the input word.


In this Word2Vec tutorial we are going to do all steps of building and training a Word2vec Python model (including pre-processing, tokenizing, batching, structuring the Word2Vec Python model and of course training it) using Python TensorFlow. Finally, we are going to use our trained Word2Vec Python model to semantically suggest names based on one or even two given names.
