24. Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Its Importance in the Field of Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a crucial aspect of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that focuses on the interaction between computers and human languages, enabling machines to understand and generate human language effectively. Key components of NLP include tokenization, POS tagging, and sentiment analysis, with real-world applications ranging from virtual assistants to language translation tools. The significance of NLP in AI lies in its ability to facilitate more natural human-machine communication and process vast amounts of data efficiently.
