Part 3 Getting real: Real-world NLP applications

Part 3 shows you how to extend your skills to tackle real-world problems. You’ll learn how to extract information, such as dates, places, and names of people. These are the key tools you need to build reasoning agents that don’t merely make things up.

You will also tackle the trickier real-world problems of NLP. You’ll learn about several different ways to build a chatbot, both with and without machine learning to guide it. And to create complex behavior, you’ll learn how to combine these techniques in a complete system. You’ll also learn about algorithms that can handle large corpora—sets of documents that cannot be loaded into RAM all at once.
