1.简介

Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a sub-field of Artificial Intelligence that allows machines to understand and process human language as it is spoken or written. It involves the use of machine learning algorithms that enable computers to identify patterns within large amounts of unstructured text data. One common task performed by NLP systems is called “sequence tagging” which refers to classifying each word in a sentence into one of several predefined categories such as noun, verb, adjective etc. In this article we will be discussing how we can perform sequence tagging using Hidden Markov Models (HMM). We will also provide step-by-step instructions on how to implement an example code for performing sequence tagging using NLTK li
