Things learned:
Technical: learned to scrape data from multiple categories, change the orientation of datasets, implement BERT.

Tools: GitHub, JupiterNotebook, GoogleCollab.

Achievements:

  • Collected data from 4200+ posts, 50+ webpages, 9 categories, and made a csv dataset with 7 features.

Meetings attended:
Week 4, 2 meetings

Goals

  1. To implement word embeddings on the data set and plot the embeddings in a way reflecting their corresponding words’ meaning.
  2. Implement BERT on a bigger dataset.
  3. Get started with variations of BERT.

Tasks completed
This week I’ve been working on the dataset and adding multiple features to it, as well as understanding and implementing BERT.
