Description: This is a tutorial about how to build, adapt, use, save, load, and deploy the Keras TextVectorization layer. You can access this tutorial on YouTube in English and Turkish. “TensorFlow Keras Text Vectorization Katmanı” / “TensorFlow Keras Text Vectorization Layer”.
In this tutorial, we will download a Kaggle Dataset in which there are 32 topics and more than 400K total reviews. We will use this dataset for a multi-class text classification task.
Our main aim is to learn how to effectively use the Keras TextVectorization
layer in Text Processing and Text Classification.
The tutorial has 5 parts:
- PART A: BACKGROUND
- PART B: KNOW THE DATA
- PART C: USE KERAS TEXT VECTORIZATION LAYER
- PART D: BUILD AN END-TO-END MODEL
- PART E: DEPLOY END-TO-END MODEL TO HUGGINGFACE SPACES USING GRADIO
- SUMMARY
At the end of this tutorial, we will cover:
- What a Keras
TextVectorization
layer is - Why we need to use a Keras
TextVectorization
layer in Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks - How to employ a Keras
TextVectorization
layer in Text Preprocessing - How to integrate a Keras
TextVectorization
layer to a trained model - How to save and load a Keras
TextVectorization
layer and a model with a KerasTextVectorization
layer - How to integrate a Keras
TextVectorization
layer with TensorFlow Data Pipeline API (tf.data
) - How to design, train, save, and load an End-to-End model using Keras
TextVectorization
layer - How to deploy the End-to-End model with a Keras
TextVectorization
layer implemented with a custom standardize (custom_standardization) function using the Gradio library and the HuggingFace Spaces
