Online Specialization Course in Natural Language Processing (NLP)

Natural Language Processing (NLP) is the engine behind chatbots, translation services, and sentiment analysis tools. This 4-course Specialization by DeepLearning.AI takes you from the foundations of linguistic algorithms to state-of-the-art Attention and Transformer models. Learn to build systems that interpret and manipulate human language, preparing you for a leading role in the AI-powered future.

What Will You Learn?

• Build NLP applications for sentiment analysis, complete analogies, and translate words using Naïve Bayes and word vectors.

• Implement autocorrect and autocomplete using Hidden Markov Models and dynamic programming.

• Develop advanced sentiment analysis and named entity recognition systems using RNNs, LSTMs, and GRUs in TensorFlow.

• Master the Transformer architecture, T5, and BERT to perform machine translation, summarization, and question-answering.

• Use industry-standard tools and libraries including TensorFlow, Trax, Hugging Face, Keras, and PyTorch.
