Introduction of Natural Language Processing

NLP is a branch of artificial intelligence that studies human-computer interactions with the goal of bridging the gap between machine comprehension and human language.

History and Application of NLP

NLP has evolved through stages: early foundations (17th century), initial machine translation (1930s-50s), knowledge engineering (1960s-70s), grammatical logic (1970s-80s), and machine learning (1980s-2000s). Modern NLP (2010s-present) uses deep learning, with applications in virtual assistants, sentiment analysis, machine translation, and more, advancing rapidly with AI and big data.
