IS&T RCS Tutorial - Natural Language Processing Basics (Hands-on)

Human language/communication can be studied computationally through Natural Language Processing (NLP). We'll explore the basics of NLP using Python and PyTorch; no prior machine learning experience necessary, basic Python knowledge is helpful but not necessary. We will look at the bigram character model and build statistical and neural network implementations. The core concepts we will examine are applicable beyond our introductory example to neural networks/NLP in general.
