Abstract

The present era of information technology makes use of natural language—the language we use every day for communication—for human-computer interaction. Natural Language Processing, often known as NLP, has recently attracted a lot of attention because of the fact that it can computationally represent and analyze human language. It is currently applicable in a wide range of contexts, including machine translation, the detection of spam in email, the collection and summarization of information, the diagnosis and treatment of medical conditions, and the response to questions. The chapter delineates several phases of NLP and provides the background and development of NLP, and cutting-edge NLP techniques by showcasing the numerous NLP applications, current trends, and potential future directions.


Keywords: Applications of NLP, Natural Language Generation (NLG), Natural Language Processing (NLP).
