Leveraging Natural Language Processing For Content Production

Join Scott Abel, The Content Wrangler, and his guest, award-winning natural language researcher, Pawan Deshpande, founder and CEO of Curata, for a discussion about natural language processing. Deshpande will draw from his experience as a researcher at Google and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to provide an overview of cutting-edge Natural Language Processing (NLP), Information Retrieval (IR) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques such as machine translation, natural language generation, automatic document summarization, and collaborative filtering. He will reveal how you already benefit from these in many day-to-day applications without even realizing it.
