Introduction to Natural Language Processing

Details

Taryn Morris, Chief Scientist at Ixio Analytics, will be joining us to give an introduction to Natural Language Processing.

Taryn recently played around with some Tidy Text (www.tidytextmining.com/) and did some Twitter scraping and sentiment analysis, which she found quite fun! Furthermore, she realised that these are great tools to add to your toolbox and wants to share her newly learned skills with us!

This will be interactive/tutorial based, so to prepare, these are some of the packages we will be using, which you can make sure you've got installed before coming:

library(rtweet)
library(tidyverse)
library(readxl)
library(RCurl)
library(httr)
library(tm)
library(wordcloud)
library(syuzhet)
library(plotly)
library(tidytext)
