Recent years have seen a dramatic growth of natural language text data, including web pages, news articles, scientific literature, emails, enterprise documents, and social media such as blog articles, forum posts, product reviews, and tweets. Text data are unique in that they are usually generated directly by humans rather than a computer system or sensors, and are thus especially valuable for discovering knowledge about people’s opinions and preferences, in addition to many other kinds of knowledge that we encode in text.

TOP REVIEWS FROM TEXT RETRIEVAL AND SEARCH ENGINES
More programming assignments would have helped understanding the topics covered in the course better.
This advance course just perfect for me who know little bit about advance statistic and linear algebra.
Some mistakes in subtitle. and it is better to break down the long videos into smaller sections, illustrate the concepts with more graphs,picture and animation.
A bit difficult to complete as the Quiz questions were tougher. But when you go through all, you might feel good.
