My Internship at the NLP Lab
Notes from my research internship at the IUST NLP Lab — the papers I read and the Coursera courses I took along the way.
During my internship at the NLP Lab, I had the opportunity to delve deep into the world of Natural Language Processing (NLP). I read six insightful articles that expanded my understanding of this fascinating field. Each article presented a unique perspective on NLP, from its applications in various industries to the latest advancements in the field.
Here are the articles I read:
- https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.02891
- https://www.mdpi.com/2504-2289/7/1/35
- https://arodes.hes-so.ch/record/4525
- https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/8791893
- https://www.researchgate.net/publication/358171937_Context-Aware_Emoji_Prediction_Using_Deep_Learning
In addition to reading articles, I also watched several specializations on Coursera. These included courses on Advanced Learning Algorithms, Supervised Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, and Deep Learning. Each course provided a wealth of knowledge and practical skills that I could apply in my internship.
