In this video we go through the major concepts in natural language processing using Python libraries! We use examples to help drill down the concepts. There is content in this video for all skill levels (beginners to experts). I originally recorded this video for the PyCon Conference.

Some of the topics we cover:
– Bag-of-words
– Word vectors
– Stemming/Lemmatization
– Spell correction
– Transformer Architecture (Attention is all you need)
– State of the art models (OpenAI GPT, BERT)

Some of the libraries used:
– sklearn
– spaCy
– NLTK
– TextBlob
