NLP Learnings 11 – Language Models – Your Business Text Data and Their Words Representation

In the previous post, we discussed Word Boundaries. What do you have to consider while using NLP Language models for your business text data? In this post, we discuss “Words Representation” for your “Business Text Data”.

When building an NLP language model for your business data, it is important to select a method to represent the words. Several methods exist, including word embeddings, symbols, and integers.

Representing Words In Your Business Text Data

You can represent the words in your business text data in the following methods:

  1. Frequency of Words – take each word OR N-gram of words and find out how frequent each word is
  2. Word Boundaries – in the previous post we discussed defining word boundaries. Apply those concepts to your business text data. Word boundary concepts are should you consider punctuation, unknown words from your business text perspective, misspelled words from your business text perspective, and more
  3. One-Hot Representation of words – more on this understanding in upcoming blog posts
  4. Dense Arrays – more on this understanding in upcoming blog posts

In addition to the above, there are many pre-trained language models that use Wiki, Stackoverflow, popular books, and more. Evaluate the pre-trained models based on their training dataset and consider those pre-trained models that are best suited for your business text data.

What do you have to d now?

From the above section, having a basic understanding of how to represent words in your business text data, you can do this from your business context perspective:
