Session: Transfer Learning With BERT: Building a Text Classification Model

The domain of Natural Language Processing have seen a tremendous amount of research and innovation in the past couple of years to tackle the problem of implementing high quality machine learning and AI solutions using natural text. Text Classification is one such area that is extremely important in all sectors like finance, media, product development, etc. Building up a text classification system from scratch for every use case can be challenging in terms of cost as well as resources, considering there is a good amount of dataset to begin training with.

Here comes the concept of transfer learning. Using some of the models that has been pre-trained on terabytes of data and fine-tuning it based on the problem at hand is the new way to efficiently implement machine learning solutions without spending months on data cleaning pipeline.

This talk with highlight ways of implementing the newly launched BERT and fine tuning the base model to build an efficient text classifying model. Basic understanding of python is desirable. Code can be made available via Github for everyone to examine after the talk.
