Natural Language Processing with PyTorch

Abstract: 

Objective: Natural Language Processing (NLP) is the fastest-growing field of deep learning with interest and funding from top AI companies to solve problems of language, text, and unstructured information. This has resulted in a tremendous focus on model building that combines language, mathematics, and computer science.
This workshop will focus on problems of text summarization, question answering, and sentiment classification using modern approaches to model-building (GNMT, BERT, and GPT2). We will apply this to real-world problems to create an NLP pipeline on top of the PyTorch framework and spaCy.
Learning Outcomes: At the end of this workshop, you will have a working knowledge of the PyTorch API to train your own deep learning models. You will be able to use OpenVINO to run model optimizer to use less compute and memory for deploying model inference in production.
