Natural Language Processing

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'An amazingly compact, and at the same time comprehensive, introduction and reference to natural language processing (NLP). It describes the NLP basics, then employs this knowledge to solve typical NLP problems. It achieves very high coverage of NLP through a clever abstraction to typical high-level tasks, such as sequence labelling. Finally, it explains the topics in deep learning. The book captivates through its simple elegance, depth, and accessibility to a wide range of readers from undergrads to experienced researchers.' Iryna Gurevych, Technical University of Darmstadt, Germany 'An excellent introduction to the field of natural language processing including recent advances in deep learning. By organising the material in terms of machine learning techniques - instead of the more traditional division by linguistic levels or applications - the authors are able to discuss different topics within a single coherent framework, with a gradual progression from basic notions to more complex material.' Joakim Nivre, Uppsala University 'The book is a valuable tool for both beginning and advanced researchers in the field.' Catalin Stoean, zbMATH 'This is a very well-written book. It provides a good introduction on the background of NLP, which will lay a good foundation for students to learn the emerging LLMs.' Chen Kan, University of Texas at Arlington
