Transformers for Natural Language Processing

About this book

Take your NLP knowledge to the next level and become an AI language understanding expert by mastering the quantum leap of Transformer neural network models Key Features Build and implement state-of-the-art language models, such as the original Transformer, BERT, T5, and GPT-2, using concepts that outperform classical deep learning models Go through hands-on applications in Python using Google Colaboratory Notebooks with nothing to install on a local machine Test transformer models on advanced use cases Book Description The transformer architecture has proved to be revolutionary in outperforming the classical RNN and CNN models in use today. With an apply-as-you-learn approach, Transformers for Natural Language Processing investigates in vast detail the deep learning for machine translations, speech-to-text, text-to-speech, language modeling, question answering, and many more NLP domains with transformers. The book takes you through NLP with Python and examines various eminent models and datasets within the transformer architecture created by pioneers such as Google, Facebook, Microsoft, OpenAI, and Hugging Face. The book trains you in three stages. The first stage introduces you t…
