The result? Chatbots that can imitate real people, meaningful resume-to-job matches, superb predictive search, and automatically generated document summaries--all at a low cost. New techniques, along with accessible tools like Keras and TensorFlow, make professional-quality NLP easier than ever before. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eNatural Language Processing in Action\u003c\/i\u003e is your guide to building machines that can read and interpret human language. In it, you'll use readily available Python packages to capture the meaning in text and react accordingly. The book expands traditional NLP approaches to include neural networks, modern deep learning algorithms, and generative techniques as you tackle real-world problems like extracting dates and names, composing text, and answering free-form questions. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat's inside\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome sentences in this book were written by NLP!
