Transfer learning is a powerful machine learning technique that involves taking a pre-trained model on a large dataset and fine-tuning it for a related but different task, significantly reducing the need for extensive datasets and computational resources. Transformers are groundbreaking neural network architectures that use attention mechanisms to efficiently process sequential data, enabling state-of-the-art performance in a wide range of natural language processing tasks. In this course, you will discover transfer learning, the TensorFlow Hub, and attention-based models. Then you will learn how to perform subword tokenization with WordPiece. Next, you will examine transformer models, specifically the FNet model, and you will apply the FNet model for sentiment analysis. Finally, you will explore advanced text processing techniques using the Universal Sentence Encoder (USE) for semantic similarity analysis and the Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) model for sentence similarity prediction.
