About the Course

In Course 2 of the Natural Language Processing Specialization, you will: a) Create a simple auto-correct algorithm using minimum edit distance and dynamic programming, b) Apply the Viterbi Algorithm for part-of-speech (POS) tagging, which is vital for computational linguistics, c) Write a better auto-complete algorithm using an N-gram language model, and d) Write your own Word2Vec model that uses a neural network to compute word embeddings using a continuous bag-of-words model. By the end of this Specialization, you will have designed NLP applications that perform question-answering and sentiment analysis, created tools to translate languages and summarize text. This Specialization is designed and taught by two experts in NLP, machine learning, and deep learning. Younes Bensouda Mourri is an Instructor of AI at Stanford University who also helped build the Deep Learning Specialization. Łukasz Kaiser is a Staff Research Scientist at Google Brain and the co-author of Tensorflow, the Tensor2Tensor and Trax libraries, and the Transformer paper....

A truly great course, focuses on the details you need, at a good pace, building up the foundations needed before relying more heavily on libraries an abstractions (which I assume will follow).

A neatly organized course introducing the students to basics of Processing text data, learning word embedding and most importantly on how to interpret the word embedding. Great Job!!

Really, really a great course!

The explanations are very clear.

Thanks to Younes, Lukasz and Eddy for this great preparation!

I look forward to seeing a specialization in Reinforcement Learning with the same structure as the current course!

The overall contents are very much interesting & also helpful. But week2 & 3 was a little bit harder for me. So I think, those contents can be little bit more informative so that anyone can go through the week's assignment more clearly.

Best Course for studying NLP. I started NLP as an experiment but these guys made me fell in love with NLP with such a clear and in depth explanation of everything that I feel so confident. Thank you for such an awesome course.

Excellent course, the explanations given by Professor Younes were very clear. It allowed me to learn more about how natural language processing is done on the inside. Thank you to all the teachers for sharing their knowledge!

A good course that covers several important probabilistic models in NLP. Very good balance between challenging and easy. There are also some interesting software concepts like dynamic programming discussed. A fun course!

Excellent and detailed description of how autocorrect and autocomplete work, as well as how POS are tagged based on Markov Models and how word embeddings are derived using a CBOW model.. thoroughly enjoyed this course!

This course goes hand in hand with the Daniel Jurafsky's introduction to NLP (Speech and Language Processing) and provides the knowhow for hands on implementation of simple but powerful probabilistic methods.

Amazing course , just loved the way faculties has explained the complex concepts in such a easy manner and also hands-on labs and graded assignment are very helpful to review one's understanding of concepts

This class is one of the best on the subject. The prof is very knowledgeable and explains concepts very clearly.

The code in the assignments and lectures is super clean and structured incredibly well.

Thoroughly relished this course. Each and every concept is explained in depth as well as there is a companion notebook to explain as well as practically implement the concepts.

This course is very good introduction to NLP Probabilistic models such as Hidden Markov model, N-Gram Language model, and Word2Vec with Python programming assignments.

Excellent course! Well designed and taught. I would have liked more advices on how to preprocess text before applying word embeddings (lemmatization, stemming, etc.)

This course was really great. Most videos have small understanding questions at the end. The final assignment was the peak of the smaller lecture notebooks.

this course is well-designed. It incorporates all factors that make a successful online course. bitesize video, easy to understand, exercise notebooks, etc.

Nicely broken into digestible chunks. Labs well done, not too easy, and too too frustrating. Material presented clearly and in (again) nice small steps.

A great course in the very spirit of the original Andrew Ng's ML course with lots of details and explanations of fundamental approaches and techniques.

I grade 5 stars, but take in account, that this course is very specific. It provides real basics of NN and NLP and it is more fundamental than apply.

Totally enjoyed it. I took a Deep Learning course a couple of years ago and in some respect, it was a great refreshment form two years ago. Thank you!
