Datasets for Natural Language Processing
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 […]
Promise of Deep Learning for Natural Language Processing
The promise of deep learning in the field of natural language processing is the better performance by models that may require more data but less linguistic expertise to train and operate. There is a lot of hype and large claims around deep learning methods, but beyond the hype, deep learning methods are achieving state-of-the-art results on […]
What Is Natural Language Processing?
Natural Language Processing, or NLP for short, is broadly defined as the automatic manipulation of natural language, like speech and text, by software. The study of natural language processing has been around for more than 50 years and grew out of the field of linguistics with the rise of computers. In this post, you will […]
7 Applications of Deep Learning for Natural Language Processing
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.

Making Predictions with Sequences
Sequence prediction is different from other types of supervised learning problems. The sequence imposes an order on the observations that must be preserved when training models and making predictions. Generally, prediction problems that involve sequence data are referred to as sequence prediction problems, although there are a suite of problems that differ based on the […]
Encoder-Decoder Long Short-Term Memory Networks
Gentle introduction to the Encoder-Decoder LSTMs for sequence-to-sequence prediction with example Python code. The Encoder-Decoder LSTM is a recurrent neural network designed to address sequence-to-sequence problems, sometimes called seq2seq. Sequence-to-sequence prediction problems are challenging because the number of items in the input and output sequences can vary. For example, text translation and learning to execute […]
