Look inside
In this liveProject you’ll develop a chatbot that can extract entities from user messages using the Hugging Face NLP library. Entity extraction pulls relevant data from chunks of text. Your challenges will include building a Named Entity Recognition task with the BERT transformer, and fine-tuning it to a medical context. You’ll then integrate your tasks into a chatbot.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
