Welcome to the best Natural Language Processing course on the internet! This course is designed to be your complete online resource for learning how to use Natural Language Processing with the Python programming language.

In the course, we will cover everything you need to learn in order to become a world-class practitioner of NLP with Python.

We’ll start with the basics, learning how to open and work with text and PDF files with Python and how to use regular expressions to search for custom patterns inside text files.

Afterward, we will begin with the basics of Natural Language Processing, utilizing the Natural Language Toolkit library for Python, as well as the state-of-the-art Spacy library for ultra-fast tokenization, parsing, entity recognition, and lemmatization of text.

We’ll understand fundamental NLP concepts such as stemming, lemmatization, stop words, phrase matching, tokenization, and more!

Next, we will cover Part-of-Speech tagging, where your Python scripts will be able to automatically assign words in a text to their appropriate part of speech, such as nouns, verbs, and adjectives, an essential part of building intelligent language systems.

We’ll also learn about named entity recognition, allowing your code to automatically understand concepts like money, time, companies, products, and more simply by supplying text information.

Through state-of-the-art visualization libraries, we will be able to view these relationships in real time.

Then we will move on to understanding machine learning with Scikit-Learn to conduct text classification, such as automatically building machine learning systems that can determine positive versus negative movie reviews or spam versus legitimate email messages.

We will expand this knowledge to more complex unsupervised learning methods for natural language processing, such as topic modeling, where our machine learning models will detect topics and major concepts from raw text files.

This course even covers advanced topics, such as sentiment analysis of text with the NLTK library, and creating semantic word vectors with the Word2Vec algorithm.

This course is an entire section devoted to state-of-the-art advanced topics, such as using deep learning to build out our own chatbots!

Not only do you get fantastic technical content with this course, but you will also get access to both our course-related Question and Answer forums, as well as our live student chat channel, so you can team up with other students for projects, or get help on the course content from myself and the course teaching assistants.

All of this comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try the course risk-free.
