An Introductory Guide to Understand how ANNs Conceptualize New Ideas (using Embedding)

Introduction Here’s something you don’t hear everyday – everything we perceive is just a best case probabilistic prediction by our brain, based on our past encounters and knowledge gained through other mediums. This might sound extremely counter intuitive because we have always imagined that our brain mostly gives us deterministic answers. We’ll do a small experiment to showcase this logic. Take a look at the below image: Q1. Do you see a human ? Q2. Can you identify the person? […]

Tutorial on Text Classification (NLP) using ULMFiT and fastai Library in Python

Introduction Natural Language Processing (NLP) needs no introduction in today’s world. It’s one of the most important fields of study and research, and has seen a phenomenal rise in interest in the last decade. The basics of NLP are widely known and easy to grasp. But things start to get tricky when the text data becomes huge and unstructured. That’s where deep learning becomes so pivotal. Yes, I’m talking about deep learning for NLP tasks – a still relatively less […]

A Step-by-Step NLP Guide to Learn ELMo for Extracting Features from Text

Introduction I work on different Natural Language Processing (NLP) problems (the perks of being a data scientist!). Each NLP problem is a unique challenge in its own way. That’s just a reflection of how complex, beautiful and wonderful the human language is. But one thing has always been a thorn in an NLP practitioner’s mind is the inability (of machines) to understand the true meaning of a sentence. Yes, I’m talking about context. Traditional NLP techniques and frameworks were great when […]

PheMT: A Phenomenon-wise Dataset for Machine Translation Robustness on User-Generated Contents

Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has shown drastic improvement in its quality when translating clean input, such as text from the news domain. However, existing studies suggest that NMT still struggles with certain kinds of input with considerable noise, such as User-Generated Contents (UGC) on the Internet… To make better use of NMT for cross-cultural communication, one of the most promising directions is to develop a model that correctly handles these expressions. Though its importance has been recognized, it is still […]

Handwriting Classification for the Analysis of Art-Historical Documents

Digitized archives contain and preserve the knowledge of generations of scholars in millions of documents. The size of these archives calls for automatic analysis since a manual analysis by specialists is often too expensive… In this paper, we focus on the analysis of handwriting in scanned documents from the art-historic archive of the WPI. Since the archive consists of documents written in several languages and lacks annotated training data for the creation of recognition models, we propose the task of […]
