Build Your First Text Classification model using PyTorch

Overview

• Learn how to perform text classification using PyTorch
• Grasp the importance of Pack Padding feature
• Understand the key points involved while solving text classification

Introduction

I always turn to State of the Art architectures to make my first submission in data science hackathons. Implementing the State of the Art architectures has become quite easy thanks to deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch, Keras, and TensorFlow. These frameworks provide an easy way to implement complex model architectures and algorithms with least knowledge of concepts and coding skills. In short, it’s a goldmine for the data science community!

In this article, we will use PyTorch, which is well known for its fast computational power. So in this article, we will walk through the key points for solving a text classification problem. And then we will implement our first text classifier in PyTorch!
