Text data preparation is different for each problem. Preparation starts with simple steps, like loading data, but quickly gets difficult with cleaning tasks that are very specific to the data you are working with. You need help as to where to begin and what order to work through the steps from raw data to data […]
Sentiment analysis is a natural language processing problem where text is understood, and the underlying intent is predicted. In this post, you will discover how you can predict the sentiment of movie reviews as either positive or negative in Python using the Keras deep learning library. After reading this post, you will know: About the […]
Practical deep learning is a challenging subject in which to get started. It is often taught in a bottom-up manner, requiring that you first get familiar with linear algebra, calculus, and mathematical optimization before eventually learning the neural network techniques. This can take years, and most of the background theory will not help you to […]
A standard deep learning model for text classification and sentiment analysis uses a word embedding layer and one-dimensional convolutional neural network. The model can be expanded by using multiple parallel convolutional neural networks that read the source document using different kernel sizes. This, in effect, creates a multichannel convolutional neural network for text that reads […]
Deep Learning for NLP Crash Course. Bring Deep Learning methods to Your Text Data project in 7 Days. We are awash with text, from books, papers, blogs, tweets, news, and increasingly text from spoken utterances. Working with text is hard as it requires drawing upon knowledge from diverse domains such as linguistics, machine learning, statistical […]
Develop a Deep Learning Model to Automatically Classify Movie Reviews as Positive or Negative in Python with Keras, Step-by-Step. Word embeddings are a technique for representing text where different words with similar meaning have a similar real-valued vector representation. They are a key breakthrough that has led to great performance of neural network models on […]
Text classification describes a general class of problems such as predicting the sentiment of tweets and movie reviews, as well as classifying email as spam or not. Deep learning methods are proving very good at text classification, achieving state-of-the-art results on a suite of standard academic benchmark problems. In this post, you will discover some […]
Movie reviews can be classified as either favorable or not. The evaluation of movie review text is a classification problem often called sentiment analysis. A popular technique for developing sentiment analysis models is to use a bag-of-words model that transforms documents into vectors where each word in the document is assigned a score. In this […]
You need datasets to practice on when getting started with deep learning for natural language processing tasks. It is better to use small datasets that you can download quickly and do not take too long to fit models. Further, it is also helpful to use standard datasets that are well understood and widely used so […]
The field of natural language processing is shifting from statistical methods to neural network methods. There are still many challenging problems to solve in natural language. Nevertheless, deep learning methods are achieving state-of-the-art results on some specific language problems. It is not just the performance of deep learning models on benchmark problems that is most […]
