NLP - Natural Language Processing with Python (Udemy.com)

The course a lot of topics going from very easy to complex topics. A variety of topics were covered and the explanation was clear until near the last. But the Deep Learning Section was not explained in detail making it harder to understand. Also the course could be updated to use newer versions of libraries and transformers could be added.

This is an excellent course that covers an impressive set of NLP use cases and techniques from the basics to moderately advanced applications. I would highly recommend it to anyone wishing to produce their own document classifiers, QA system, sentiment analyzers or part of speech taggers. My favourite part was a chance to implement a QA engine from a neural architecture outlined in a paper. The course would have got five stars but I could not understand how the instructors implementation fulfilled the design in the paper there were some unexplained inconsistencies. Never the less a great exercise.

This course was absolutely perfect! I was looking for a course on NLP with which I could learn the bases of NLP such as tokenizer, lemming and all the pipeline for text pre-treatment, but also topic modelling and deep learning and I'm so glad I found this one! The explanations were so clear, the notebooks are built in a very instinctive way so we can find our way around very easily. THANK YOU ! I'll share your course the most I can and surely take another one from you very soon :)

I have a mixed feeling about this course. What I was expecting but did not find enough in this course were exercises and/or assignments. Those that were included in the course were not really challenging as they required just repeating the code shown in the lecture. I think this course would greatly benefit from adding some challenging assignments.

It gave me a good introduction to machine learning, although very specific (NLP). I have rated this course compared to a number of other Udemy courses I did and then this one jumps out in a positive way. A well-prepared teacher, although he reads displayed sheets out loud: not really best practice. After this course, I recommend to do Kaggle (google it). For the rest thanks very much for a great machine learning introduction, Data Sciences gives me great satisfaction and joy!

It covered a lot of the things I was looking to learn. Some of the topics are not super in depth, but more of a walk through with skimming the topics. You will need to go back and do some digging on the topics where this is done. Besides that I learned a lot and can say this class was worth it. Thanks for the good content.

The course is Excellent. The last topic of Deep Learning can be a bit overwhelming so I would suggest to take a break after topic 7 and then before going to Deep Learning, learn more about RNNs, keras and tensorflow a bit since the course doesn't cover a lot of basics and assumes that you are familiar. The pace of the course, the notebooks ( though I used Python IDLE ) , the way of explanation is all great. There are lot of topics and I would suggest a refresher through all topics again once you reach the end, maybe without practicing the code part.

I love Jose Portilla Courses, I also bought several ones after I started Python from Zero to a Hero. Only thing I would add is that the requirements for this course make things a little confusing at the very end, because when I got to the section of Build a Chat Bot, a couple of things I saw, they were not mentioned during the course, but assuming that the user is already familiar with some Optimizers , Loss function and Activation functions. But this course is a great start for anybody whiling to get into the NLP. GREAT JOB!!!

The course is great! I love it! It offers more than a general overview for many concepts that somebody can meet in NLP. It would be nice if in the future Jose and his team will create more courses analyzing each of those concepts deeper and provide more business oriented examples. 5 stars from me.

My experience with the course has been overall good. Jose makes the lectures concise and direct to the point. The way the course is organised is also commendable. From the basics of NLP using spacy to making basic chat-bots, this course is a must for someone who wants a good start in NLP.
