Language is the most complex and intimate tool we have for communicating with one another in the enormous field of human communication. From the elegant poetry of classical literature to the quick words of the modern digital age, language has always been at our side, changing along with us and expressing our identity, history, and culture. The fascinating field of natural language processing (NLP), which lies at the junction of computer science and linguistics, is committed to understanding, interpreting, and harnessing the power of language.
Welcome to "Natural Language Processing: Decoding Human Language- Algorithms, Techniques, and Applications." This e-book aims to introduce you to the field of natural language processing (NLP) and explore its various applications, methodologies, and algorithms. This e-book contains value for all readers, including seasoned researchers, professionals in the field, students, and those with a curious mind.
Artificial intelligence (AI) advances have been revolutionary, and natural language processing (NLP) is at the core of many AI applications. NLP is the silent workhorse behind virtual assistants like Siri and Alexa, which can understand our commands and even generate text that appears eerily human.
We'll examine the fundamental components of human language in the upcoming chapters, which will provide you with an understanding of the difficulties and complexities linguists and engineers face in their attempts to make machines "understand" humans. We'll explore the methods and algorithms-both traditional and innovative-that serve as the foundation for current NLP studies and applications. Beyond the technicalities, we'll talk about the ethics and biases in NLP as a reminder that although technology is neutral, its applications and consequences are seldom.
