Description
Introduction to Natural Language Processing offers a comprehensive introduction to the principles, methods, and challenges of enabling computers to process and understand human language. Combining linguistic theory with modern machine learning approaches, the book explores how language is represented, analyzed, and modeled for tasks such as text classification, language modeling, parsing, information extraction, machine translation, and text generation. Emphasizing both conceptual understanding and practical implementation, it presents natural language processing as an interdisciplinary field that draws from computer science, linguistics, and artificial intelligence. This book serves as an excellent resource for students, researchers, and practitioners seeking a solid foundation in contemporary NLP.
