Computational linguistics and the related field of natural language processing (NLP) are widely used in software applications, analytics, and other contexts where humans communicate via machines. Modern NLP in a software context requires the combination of machine learning with linguistic knowledge. In order for a piece of software to take advantage of NLP, a framework and a level of computational sturdiness is required. Both Java and Python are used for this purpose.

In this course you will be using Python and a module called NLTK – the Natural Language Tool Kit to perform natural language processing on medium size text corpora. NLTK provides analysts, software developers, researchers, and students cutting edge linguistic and machine learning tools that are on par with traditional NLP frameworks
