The Open Source World of Natural Language Processing - Liling Tan - FOSSASIA Summit 2017

Speaker: Liling Tan (Singapore), Rakuten Asia

Abstract:
Natural Language Processing (NLP) is the task of the computationally understanding and production of human languages, often using a mix of hand-crafted rules and machine learning techniques. The recent hype in artificial intelligence and deep learning has brought a tsunami of media coverage, governmental interest and public enthusiast. And NLP rode the wave and pushed the computational processing of language to the current frontier. In this talk, we will go through the various NLP open source available and share my experience being a contributor to Natural Language Tool Kit (NLTK) and Moses machine translation suite.
