The challenge of building end-to-end NLP pipelines

There is a lack of comprehensive guides for integrating multilingual NLP models into applications with proper CI/CD practices, especially for non-English languages.

#2about 5 minutes

Understanding the core components of an NLP pipeline

A typical NLP pipeline consists of three key stages: pre-processing, feature extraction, and modeling, with pre-processing being critical for handling unstructured data.

#3about 8 minutes

Why simply translating everything to English is not enough

Translating all text to English for NLP analysis can decrease accuracy by up to 20% due to lost semantic nuance and dialectical differences.

#4about 10 minutes

Generalizing languages with stemming and bag-of-words

Handle similar languages by using stemming to find common root words and a bag-of-words model with a similarity index to treat them as a single language.

#5about 5 minutes

Achieving high accuracy with a unified language model

By training classifiers on stemmed and normalized vectors from multiple similar languages, it's possible to achieve high accuracy of around 90% in tasks like topic classification.

#6about 8 minutes

Choosing the right deployment strategy for your model

Decide between embedding your model or exposing it as an API, considering options like serverless for simple cases or Kubernetes for scalable, cloud-agnostic deployments.

#7about 7 minutes

Implementing a CI/CD pipeline for your NLP model

Establish an MLOps workflow with continuous training, integration, and delivery by containerizing your model with Docker and automating builds with tools like GitHub Actions.
