What students said

Patrick Houlihan · 2026 · 2026

I learned concepts of NLP. Python programming and how to solve data science problems.

Patrick Houlihan · 2026 · 2026

Really few - Some basic NLP techniques that you find on most online tutorials.

Patrick Houlihan · 2026 · 2026

Natural Language Processing models (Supervised Models; Unsupervised Topic Modelling) and Basic Python

Patrick Houlihan · 2026 · 2026

Coding in Python and applying elements of Natural Language Processing

Patrick Houlihan · 2026 · 2026

I was really disappointed by the class. The materials covered is really basic and corresponds to what you can find on most online tutorials. There is absolutely no theory to understand what are we doing. The professor comes unprepared to class and students have to basically look for him to find solutions to solve the code on Stack Overflow.

I'm not sure I'd recommend because it depends on the student's interest, and this is a course specifically designed for students to learn about a specific topic within machine learning (NLP). I guess I would recommend to those who are interested in learning Python or learning about NLP.

Patrick Houlihan · 2026 · 2026

Natural language processing, how to deal with raw text data(clean text),etc.

Patrick Houlihan · 2026 · 2026

The basics of natural language processing, including web scraping, text pre-processing, dimensionality reduction, text classification, topic modeling, sentiment analysis, etc. Also learned a lot of programming skills in Python.

Patrick Houlihan · 2026 · 2026

The only think useful was - Jaccard similarity, pickling and maybe use of PCA in transformed text features

Patrick Houlihan · 2026 · 2026

We gained hands on experience with various Natural Language Processing techniques and the realities behind obtaining and processing real data.
