Unit Vi Natural Language Processing

Natural language processing (NLP) refers to a branch of artificial intelligence that allows computers to understand, analyze, and generate human language. The main components of NLP are natural language understanding, which involves speech recognition, and natural language generation, which involves text-to-speech. Applications of NLP include sentiment analysis, automatic text summarization, text classification, and virtual assistants.

UNIT VI NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING


1.1 Introduction
Natural Language Processing (NLP) refers to a branch of artificial Intelligence that
communicates with an intelligent system using a natural language such as English.
Natural language processing has made it possible for computers to extract keywords and
phrases, understand the meaning of language, translate that to another language, or generate
a response/output.
NLP(Natural Language Processing), also known as computational linguistics. It mixes
language, machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) together. It builds a technology which
allows us to interact with machines as if we are having conversation with a human to another
human. “Hey Siri” on your iPhone or “OK Google” on your Android mobile, Google Map,
Language Translation Application are the examples of Natural Language Processing.
1.2 Components of NLP
The two main components of Natural Processing are:
a) Natural Language Understanding: Also known as, speech recognition
(speech-to-text). An artificial intelligence language that uses computer software to
recognize text or speech is called Natural Language Understanding.
b) Natural Language Generation: Natural Language Generation is the opposite of
speech recognition (i.e., text-to-speech) where the generated or processed information
is reproduced in the form of human language. It refers to the process of creating
meaningful phrases and sentences in the form of natural language from some internal
representation.
1.3 Applications of NLP
a) Sentiment Analysis: Analyzing human emotions is one of the most complex and
critical tasks as it involves expressions and sentiments that are beyond literal
interpretations.
The data gathered from customers’ responses such as tweets, comments, feedback
and reviews that are related to products or services are studied. This process is called
Sentiment Analysis. Many e-commerce companies such as Amazon, Flipkart, etc.
make use of Natural Language Processing applications that do sentiment analysis in
real-time on a periodic basis. This process helps identify the opinion and review of
customers for their products which is useful for understanding the deeper aspects of
their business.
b) Automatic Text Summarization: This is one of the most dynamic applications of
Natural Language Processing, used for generating a concise and meaningful summary
of text by extracting the most important information from multiple text sources such as
books, news articles, blog posts, research papers, e-mails, etc. For example, Inshorts,
a mobile app, uses an Al-powered algorithm called Rapid60 to convert news articles
into 60- word summaries.
c) Text Classification: Text classification is a process of grouping or organizing the text
into predefined categories. This application of Natural Language Processing is used for
multiple tasks such as spam detection and filtering emails. For example, the automatic
categorization of emails as Primary, Social or Promotions in Gmail is one of the must at
examples of text classification using Natural Language Processing.
d) Virtual Assistants: A virtual assistant, also called Al assistant, is an application that
takes voice commands and completes tasks for the user. Most popular virtual assistant

includes Google Assistant, Microsoft Cortana, Apple Siri, and Amazon Echo. They use
speech recognition technology to understand and interpret human language.
