Rashmi Nagpal on Natural Language Processing Techniques in Ruby

Abstract:
Everyone is shaped by innumerable influences like ethnicity, religion, race, age, geographical region they and their relatives have lived in, and/or many other group identities - all mingled with individual personality and predilection. People are apt to sum up others by reference to one category or a few, such as "New York Jewish Intellectual". Although these categories might predict some of behaviors of the people so described, they miss far more about them than they capture! In inumerable ways, every individual is different utterly unlike other!
In this talk, we'll explore together, conversational styles of individuals, that is, utilizing Natural Language Processing techniques, in ruby!
