In this section, we will be talking about how to integrate fastText into your statistical models. The most common and popular library for statistical machine learning is scikit-learn, so we will focus on that.
scikit-learn is one of the most popular machine learning tools and the reason is that the API is very simple and uniform. The flow is like this:
- You basically convert your data into matrix format.
- Then, you create an instance of the predictor class.
- Using the instance, you run the fit method on the data.
- Once the model is created, you can run predict on it.
This means that you can create a custom classifier by defining the fit and predict methods.
