Introduction

This chapter begins with a quick recap of what natural language processing is and what services it can help provide. Then, it discusses two applications of natural language processing: Parts of Speech Tagging (POS tagging) and Named Entity Recognition. The functioning, necessity, and purposes of both of these algorithms are explained. Additionally, there are exercises and activities that perform POS tagging and named entity recognition and build and develop these algorithms.

Natural language processing consists of aiding machines to understand the natural language of humans in order to communicate with them effectively and automate a large number of tasks. The previous chapter discussed the applications of natural language processing along with examples of real-life use cases where these techniques could simplify the lives of humans. This chapter will specifically look into two of these algorithms and their real-life applications.

Every aspect of natural language processing can...
