Learn how the ML.NET Framework can democratize the art of machine learning to integrate a pre-trained NLP model customized on your data into your .NET solution.
Overview:
Natural language processing (NLP) is a machine learning technology that gives computers the ability to interpret, manipulate, and comprehend human language. Carlotta Castelluccio introduces the basic concepts of machine learning and then deep dives into one specific domain--natural language processing with ML.NET. She demonstrates how to fine-tune the hyper parameters of the model through the API, after having trained the model with Model Builder.
Some of the key points covered in this course are:
- Setting up your machine to get started with ML.NET framework
- Fine-tuning a pre-trained NLP model on your data with Model Builder and perform evaluation
- Adding the NLP model to a console app and tune hyperparameters to get better performances
- Deploying the model and consume it into a Razor web app
Skill Level:
Learn How To:
- Set up your machine to get started with the ML.NET framework (without any additional costs!)
- Build an ML model with a low code approach and beginner knowledge of ML
- Build and deploy a .NET app embedding a Natural Language Processing (NLP) model
Course requirement:
- Some familiarity with Visual studio and/or .NET
Who Should Take This Course:
- You are a software developer familiar with C# and .NET framework but not with languages traditionally used for data science (Python and R)
- You are a beginner in machine learning, and you would like to get started with building and deploying models
- You are a data scientist wishing to learn a new machine learning framework
