Overview of this book

Applying deep learning approaches to various NLP tasks can take your computational algorithms to a completely new level in terms of speed and accuracy. Deep Learning for Natural Language Processing starts by highlighting the basic building blocks of the natural language processing domain. The book goes on to introduce the problems that you can solve using state-of-the-art neural network models. After this, delving into the various neural network architectures and their specific areas of application will help you to understand how to select the best model to suit your needs. As you advance through this deep learning book, you’ll study convolutional, recurrent, and recursive neural networks, in addition to covering long short-term memory networks (LSTM). Understanding these networks will help you to implement their models using Keras. In later chapters, you will be able to develop a trigger word detection application using NLP techniques such as attention model and beam search. By the end of this book, you will not only have sound knowledge of natural language processing, but also be able to select the best text preprocessing and neural network models to solve a number of NLP issues.

Google Colab

You are familiar with the intense computational requirements of deep learning models. On a CPU, it would take a remarkably long time to train a deep learning model with lots of training data. Hence, to keep training times practical, it is common practice to use cloud-based services that offer Graphics Processing Units (GPU) to speed up computations. You can expect a speedup of 10-30 times when compared to running the training session on a CPU. The exact amount of speedup, of course, depends upon the power of the GPU, the amount of data involved, and the processing steps.

There are many vendors offering such cloud services, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure and others. Google offers an environment/IDE called Google Colab, which offers up to 12 hours of free GPU usage per day for anyone looking to train deep learning models. Additionally, the code is run on a Jupyter-like notebook. In this chapter, we will leverage the power of Google Colab to develop our deep...
