Who is this presentation for?

  • Analysts and data scientists

Prerequisite knowledge

  • The ability to read generic code

Materials or downloads needed in advance

What you'll learn

  • Understand natural language processing basic concepts, including part-of-speech tagging, word embeddings/vector space models, and syntactic parsing
  • Explore examples of interacting with NetworkX graphs representing parse trees and visualizations with Matplotlib
  • Learn how to do interactive NLP with SpaCy within the Jupyter Notebook

Description

Modern natural language processing (NLP) workflows often require interoperability between multiple tools, with components like SpaCy for stochastic parsing, TensorFlow for deep learning, and JavaScript or D3 for visualization. Aaron Kramer offers an introduction to interactive NLP with SpaCy within the Jupyter Notebook, covering core NLP concepts, core workflows in SpaCy, and examples of interacting with other tools like TensorFlow, NetworkX, LIME, and others as part of interactive NLP projects. Along the way, Aaron walks you through training a deep learning mode, loading it into SpaCy, and explaining your NLP models with LIME.
