Description
This course reviews natural language processing with a focus on
recent developments in computational linguistics and machine
learning. Students work with unstructured and semi-structured text
from online sources, document collections, and databases. Students
learn how to parse text into numeric vectors and to convert higher
dimensional vectors into lower dimensional vectors for subsequent
analysis and modeling. Applications include speech recognition,
semantic processing, text classification, search, recommendation
systems, sentiment analysis, and topic modeling. This is a
project-based course with extensive programming assignments.
This is a required course for the Artificial Intelligence
specialization.
