Natural Language Processing with Classification and Vector Spaces
In Course 1 of the Natural Language Processing Specialization, you will: a) Perform sentiment analysis of tweets using logistic regression and then naïve Bayes, b) Use vector space models to discover relationships between words and use PCA to reduce the dimensionality of the vector space and visualize those relationships, and c) Write a simple English to French translation algorithm using pre-computed word embeddings and locality-sensitive hashing to relate words via approximate k-nearest neighbor search. By the end of this Specialization, you will have designed NLP applications

Fundamentals of Natural Language Processing
The field of natural language processing (NLP) aims at getting computers to perform useful and interesting tasks with human language. This course introduces students to the 3 pillars underlying modern NLP: probabilistic language models, simple neural networks with a focus on gradient based learning, and vector-based meaning representations in the form of word embeddings. At the end of the course, students will be able to implement and analyze probabilistic language models based on N-grams, text classifiers using logistic regression and gradient-based learning, and vector-based approaches to wo

HelixDB From Zero
Stop stitching three databases together. HelixDB is a Rust-native graph plus vector engine that holds your nodes, your embeddings, your typed edges, and your key-value documents in one process — no separate Postgres, no separate Qdrant, no separate Neo4j. This course walks a Rust-fluent engineer from helix init through a typed HelixQL schema, the helix check and helix compile pre-deploy gates, side-by-side graph traversal and vector search in the same query language, and a typed Rust client that calls a live HelixDB instance with four runtime contracts. Every primitive you meet is wired into a

Understand RAG Basics
"Understand RAG Basics" is an intermediate course for developers and data scientists who want to build more powerful and trustworthy AI applications. While Large Language Models (LLMs) are revolutionary, they often lack specific, up-to-date knowledge and can hallucinate answers. This 2-hour course provides the fundamental solution: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). You will need to be familiar with basic Python, API, and LLMs. You will also need Python and a code editor like VS Code installed locally. Focused on practical application, this course transitions from theory to execution. Y
