Turning text into valuable information is essential for many businesses looking to gain a competitive advantage. There have been many improvements in natural language processing and users have a lot of options when choosing to work on a problem. However, it's not always clear which NLP tools or libraries would work for a business use—or which techniques you should use and in what order.This practical book provides theoretical background and real-world case studies with detailed code examples to help developers and data scientists obtain insight from text online. Authors Jens Albrecht, Sidharth Ramachandran, and Christian Winkler use blueprints for text-related problems that apply state-of-the-art machine learning methods in Python.If you have a fundamental understanding of statistics and machine learning along with basic programming experience in Python, you're ready to get started. You'll learn how to:Crawl and clean then explore and visualize textual data in different formatsPreprocess and vectorize text for machine learningApply methods for classification, topic analysis, summarization, and knowledge extractionUse semantic word embeddings and deep learning approaches for complex problemsWork with Python NLP libraries like spaCy, NLTK, and Gensim in combination with scikit-learn, Pandas, and PyTorch
