Word Explorer - A Powerful NLP Tool

• What is Word Explorer?
  • A Shiny-based web application for Natural Language Processing (NLP).
  • Leverages pre-trained word embeddings to provide insights into word relationships and predictions.
• Why is it valuable?
  • Enables users to explore semantic relationships between words.
  • Predicts the next word in a sentence, enhancing text generation and understanding.
  • Visualizes high-dimensional word embeddings in 2D for intuitive exploration.

1. Word Similarity
   • Finds the most similar words to a given input word.
   • Ranks words by cosine similarity in the embedding space.
2. Next Word Prediction
   • Predicts the next word in a sentence using contextual word embeddings.
   • Ideal for text autocompletion and language modeling.
3. Interactive Visualization
   • Visualizes word embeddings in 2D using t-SNE for dimensionality reduction.
   • Provides an interactive plot for exploring word clusters and relationships.

NLP Pipeline for Word Prediction

• Cleaned over 70 million words from different sources.
  
• Uses GloVe embeddings to learn word relationships.
  
• Creates a term-cooccurrence matrix (TCM) to model word proximity.
  
• Trains embeddings to generate meaningful word predictions.
