How Users Can Get Started With Open Source Natural Language Processing (NLP) Tools
Getting started with using open source Natural Language Processing (NLP) projects is easier than ever now that there are a wide range of popular and powerful projects available.
The first step in getting up to speed on open source NLP tools is to familiarize yourself with the most popular frameworks, libraries, and packages available. There are dozens of options out there, including spaCy, NLTK, OpenNLP, NLU-Evaluation Framework (NEF), Stanford CoreNLP, Gensim, AllenNLP, and HuggingFace Transformers. Different projects focus on different tasks (e.g., tokenization), so you should consider which project is best suited for your particular needs. Once you’ve chosen a project or framework that fits your requirements best it's time to get started.
Fortunately tutorials for many of these packages are commonly updated as new versions come out or bugs have been fixed. A great place to start if you're new to using open source NLP tools is training courses such as Natural Language Processing with Python from Coursera or Udacity's Intro to Natural Language Processing course. These courses will help you understand the basics of NLP concepts and algorithms as well as provide an overview of the various tools and packages available for use in developing solutions for natural language processing tasks.
Once you've completed any necessary training online or elsewhere it's time to dig deeper into each package and library that interests you most. Each project often has its own official website containing extensive documentation explaining not only how set up the software but also how certain features work exactly under different settings etc.. Github repos can often provide more insights into an algorithm’s capabilities by providing examples written by users who may have already solved a problem similar to yours before. Lastly don't forget about local user groups where passionate people eager to help newcomers meet in person share their experiences while demystifying some technical hurdles along the way.
