About this course

In this course, you will be taking on the role of an NLP data scientist atStack Exchange, a network of question-and-answer websites on topics in diverse fields. Stack Exchange has over 10M registered users and is best known for its flagship websites Stack Overflow or Ask Ubuntu. You will build statistics-focused language models using gradually more complex methods. You will evaluate and apply these models to the tasks of:
– Query completion
– Larger text generation
– Sentence selection
At the end of this course, you will be able to build the foundations of any domain-specific NLP system by creating the most a robust and efficient language model.

Skills acquired & topics covered

  • Working in a hands-on learning environment, led by our Building Domain Specific Language Models expert instructor, participants will learn about and explore:
  • Starting with building n-gram language models, which will serve as a baseline for performance evaluations,
  • Moving on to a more complex modeling technique based on RNNs,
  • Using state-of-the-art language model building with the AllenNLP framework. The AllenNLP framework helps you design and evaluate deep-learning models for nearly any NLP problem.
  • Loading and preparing the dataset
  • Building and evaluating n-gram word-based language models
  • Building a word-based language model using recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and word embeddings
  • Building a character-based language model with AllenNLP
