Description

Navigating the terrain of NLP research and applying it practically can be a formidable task made easy with The Handbook of NLP with Gensim. This book demystifies NLP and equips you with hands-on strategies spanning healthcare, e-commerce, finance, and more to enable you to leverage Gensim in real-world scenarios. You’ll begin by exploring motives and techniques for extracting text information like bag-of-words, TF-IDF, and word embeddings. This book will then guide you on topic modeling using methods such as Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) for dimensionality reduction and discovering latent semantic relationships in text data, Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) for probabilistic topic modeling, and Ensemble LDA to enhance topic modeling stability and accuracy. Next, you’ll learn text summarization techniques with Word2Vec and Doc2Vec to build the modeling pipeline and optimize models using hyperparameters. As you get acquainted with practical applications in various industries, this book will inspire you to design innovative projects. Alongside topic modeling, you’ll also explore named entity handling and NER tools, modeling procedures, and tools for effective topic modeling applications. By the end of this book, you’ll have mastered the techniques essential to create applications with Gensim and integrate NLP into your business processes.

I will love to discuss more about the book with readers and present more use cases. I still remember the midnight when I was writing the chapter on text representation and listening to the song "Never enough" of the Greatest Showman. I use the lyric to show to readers how accessible it is to do NLP.
