Study Notes
Natural Language Processing (NLP)
- NLP focuses on the interaction between computers and humans through natural language.
- Essential to model and represent human language effectively in computer systems.
Challenges in NLP
- Language ambiguity: A single phrase can have multiple interpretations, complicating machine understanding.
- Evolving language: New slang and expressions emerge, necessitating constant updates to fixed language models.
- Context-dependent meanings: Words can change meaning based on context, as seen with the phrase "drastically decreased," which can be positive or negative.
- Sarcasm and figures of speech further complicate interpretation. For example, praising something can be used sarcastically, altering its intended meaning.
Preprocessing in NLP
- Preprocessing prepares raw text data for modeling in NLP.
- Part-of-Speech (POS) Taggers analyze and categorize each word's role (e.g., noun, verb).
Data Modelling
- Represents observations or instances in text data as lists of words, each linked with relevant information.
- Word embeddings transform words into mathematical representations, enabling various mathematical operations.
Types of Word Embeddings
- Frequency-based encoding: Focuses on the most frequently occurring words in a dataset.
- Prediction-based encoding: Uses context to predict word placements.
Naïve Word Embedding
- Constructs a dictionary of unique words within a document.
- Each word can be expressed as a one-hot encoded vector, indicating its position in the dictionary.
N-Grams
- Utilizes contiguous sequences of words from a text for analysis, with varying lengths (n) based on the analysis task.
- Can utilize previous words or examine relationships bi-directionally to enhance understanding.
Dependency Parsing
- Represents the grammatical structure of sentences using a graph, demonstrating the relationships between words.
- Machine learning techniques can enhance the effectiveness of dependency parsing.
