📅 2025-02-17 — Session: Enhanced NLP Pipeline and Keyword Extraction
🕒 16:00–16:30
🏷️ Labels: NLP, RAKE, Tfidfvectorizer, Python, Keyword Extraction
📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM
Session Goal
The goal of this session was to resolve issues with NLP text processing and keyword extraction, specifically focusing on optimizing the TfidfVectorizer and RAKE methods.
Key Activities
- Resolving TfidfVectorizer Error: Addressed an error related to the
stop_wordsparameter inTfidfVectorizerby converting a set of stop words into a suitable list format for scikit-learn. - Streamlining NLP Pipeline: Developed a more efficient and readable NLP text processing script, including sections for loading, preprocessing, topic extraction, and saving results.
- Optimizing RAKE Method: Analyzed the RAKE keyword extraction method, identifying verbosity issues and suggesting improvements for more concise keyword extraction.
- Adjusting RAKE Parameters: Modified RAKE parameters to improve keyword relevance, including filtering thresholds, phrase length, and stopword management.
Achievements
- Successfully resolved the TfidfVectorizer stop words error.
- Implemented a streamlined NLP processing pipeline.
- Enhanced RAKE keyword extraction method for better efficiency and relevance.
Pending Tasks
- Further testing and validation of the adjusted RAKE parameters to ensure optimal performance.
