Develop your NLP skills from scratch, with an open source toolbox of Python packages, Transformers, Hugging Face, vector databases, and your own Large Language Models.
Natural Language Processing in Action, Second Edition has helped thousands of data scientists build machines that understand human language. In this new and revised edition, you'll discover state-of-the art Natural Language Processing (NLP) models like BERT and HuggingFace transformers, popular open-source frameworks for chatbots, and more. You'll create NLP tools that can detect fake news, filter spam, deliver exceptional search results and even build truthfulness and reasoning into Large Language Models (LLMs).
In Natural Language Processing in Action, Second Edition you will learn how to:
Process, analyze, understand, and generate natural language text
Build production-quality NLP pipelines with spaCy
Build neural networks for NLP using Pytorch
BERT and GPT transformers for English composition, writing code, and even organizing your thoughts
Create chatbots and other conversational AI agents
In this new and revised edition, you'll discover state-of-the art NLP models like BERT and HuggingFace transformers, popular open-source frameworks for chatbots, and more. Plus, you'll discover vital skills and techniques for optimizing LLMs including conversational design, and automating the "trial and error" of LLM interactions for effective and accurate results.
About the technology
From nearly human chatbots to ultra-personalized business reports to AI-generated email, news stories, and novels, natural language processing (NLP) has never been more powerful! Groundbreaking advances in deep learning have made high-quality open source models and powerful NLP tools like spaCy and PyTorch widely available and ready for production applications. This book is your entrance ticket—and backstage pass—into the next generation of natural language processing.
About the book
Natural Language Processing in Action, Second Edition introduces the foundational technologies and state-of-the-art tools you'll need to write and publish NLP applications. You learn how to create custom models for search, translation, writing assistants, and more, without relying on big commercial foundation models. This fully updated second edition includes coverage of BERT, Hugging Face transformers, fine-tuning large language models, and more.
What's inside
NLP pipelines with spaCy
Neural networks with PyTorch
BERT and GPT transformers
Conversational design for chatbots
About the reader
For intermediate Python programmers familiar with deep learning basics.
