The field of NLP continues to evolve. Besides sentiment analysis and topic modeling, there are still many opportunities to extract information from unstructured text data. In this workshop we help data scientists take the next step in text mining. We do this by using BERT models for classification purposes. We explain how this works and what the benefits are. By providing Python notebooks we can quickly get started with this during workshops and after the workshop you will have a script you can use for your own application.
Learning goals
At the end of the workshop:
- You are aware of several techniques that can be used in NLP.
- You know what BERT models are
- You are able to apply BERT model for classification.
- You have a notebook that you can use for your application
Target audience
This workshop is intended for data scientists who have worked with text mining / NLP before and who have worked with Python before. You do not need to be an expert in either to participate in this training.
