About the Course

This course will cover the major techniques for mining and analyzing text data to discover interesting patterns, extract useful knowledge, and support decision making, with an emphasis on statistical approaches that can be generally applied to arbitrary text data in any natural language with no or minimum human effort. Detailed analysis of text data requires understanding of natural language text, which is known to be a difficult task for computers. However, a number of statistical approaches have been shown to work well for the "shallow" but robust analysis of text data for pattern finding and knowledge discovery. You will learn the basic concepts, principles, and major algorithms in text mining and their potential applications....

The content of Text Mining and Analytics is very comprehensive and deep. More practise about how formula works would be better. Quiz could be not tough to be completed after attending every lectures.

The content was very useful, and the preparation of the course denoted much care and preparation by the teacher. I would love to see some modern topics like word embeddings covered in the course!

Despite the amount of material to cover, this course did a great job of introducing the right amount of detail for various aspects (motivation, algorithms, algorithmic reasoning, evaluation) on topic modelling, text clustering, text categorization, sentiment analysis, aspect sentiment analysis, evaluation of text and non-text data in context, and more. Definitely read the additional resources for the material - it will give you an incredibly in-depth view to what you learned in the lectures and also give you a start on implementing the covered algorithms on your own.

The only thing I missed in this class are assignments for implementing the algorithms in a language other than C++ and in a framework other than MeTA. It would make sense to provide this opportunity in additional, commonly-used data-science languages such as Python!
