Simple NLP in Python With TextBlob: Tokenization

Introduction The amount of textual data on the Internet has significantly increased in the past decades. There’s no doubt that the processing of this amount of information must be automated, and the TextBlob package is one of the fairly simple ways to perform NLP – Natural Language Processing. It provides a simple API for diving into common natural language processing (NLP) tasks such as part-of-speech tagging, noun phrase extraction, tokenization, sentiment analysis, classification, translation, and more. No special technical prerequisites […]

Add Legend to Figure in Matplotlib

Introduction Matplotlib is one of the most widely used data visualization libraries in Python. Typically, when visualizing more than one variable, you’ll want to add a legend to the plot, explaining what each variable represents. In this article, we’ll take a look at how to add a legend to a Matplotlib plot. Creating a Plot Let’s first create a simple plot with two variables: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np fig, ax = plt.subplots() x = np.arange(0, 10, […]

Predicting Movie Genres using NLP – An Awesome Introduction to Multi-Label Classification

Introduction I was intrigued going through this amazing article on building a multi-label image classification model last week. The data scientist in me started exploring possibilities of transforming this idea into a Natural Language Processing (NLP) problem. That article showcases computer vision techniques to predict a movie’s genre. So I had to find a way to convert that problem statement into text-based data. Now, most NLP tutorials look at solving single-label classification challenges (when there’s only one label per observation). […]

Machine Learning in Cyber Security — Malicious Software Installation

Introduction Monitoring of user activities performed by local administrators is always a challenge for SOC analysts and security professionals. Most of the security framework will recommend the implementation of a whitelist mechanism. However, the real world is often not ideal. You will always have different developers or users having local administrator rights to bypass controls specified. Is there a way to monitor the local administrator activities?

Save Plot as Image with Matplotlib

Introduction Matplotlib is one of the most widely used data visualization libraries in Python. It’s common to share Matplotlib plots and visualizations with others. In this article, we’ll take a look at how to save a plot/graph as an image file using Matplotlib. Creating a Plot Let’s first create a simple plot: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np x = np.arange(0, 10, 0.1) y = np.sin(x) plt.plot(x, y) plt.show() Here, we’ve plotted a sine function, starting at 0 […]
