Word2Vec and FastText Word Embedding with Gensim in Python

This project deals with applying various techniques from Natural Language Processing to the analysis and visualization of data in text form. We will use some of the most popular models: Word2Vec (CBOW, Skip-Gram) and FastText to process and explore text and further extract extremely crucial insights such as its word similarities and analogies. The objective is to understand how machine learning models capture relations between words.

Project Description

This study uses Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods for text-document analysis via word embedding models. First, the text data is pre-processed, cleansing, tokenizing, and removing stopwords. Thereafter, three popular models- CBOW, Skip-Gram, and FastText-are trained on the dataset, creating vector representations capable of defining the relationship of words with each other.

Afterward, it will explore the following: word similarity, analogical reasoning- for instance, 'doctor + medicine' - hospital and outlier detection of groups of words. To better understand the performance of these models, we implement diminution techniques PCA and t-SNE to illustrate how devices work on arranging words in a 2D space. The project is geared towards comparing how different embeddings capture word meanings and relations: CBOW, Skip-Gram, and FastText.
