As a data scientist, knowing how machine learning algorithms work is very important. However, it may not be efficient to build your own machine learning model to perform certain tasks, as it takes a lot of effort and time to design an optimal algorithm. In Chapter 10, Working with AWS Comprehend, Chapter 11, Using AWS Rekognition, and Chapter 12, Building Conversational Interfaces Using AWS Lex, we will examine the machine learning as a service (MLaaS) products that you can access in AWS. These products allow you to use models that are pretrained in AWS using either the AWS dashboard or API calls.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Introducing Amazon Comprehend
- Accessing Amazon Comprehend
- Testing entity recognition using Comprehend
- Testing sentiment analysis using Comprehend
- Implementing text classification using Comprehend APIs ...
