In this course, we will equip you with the necessary knowledge to work with textual data!

What is textual data? It is only sometimes a sequence of words in English!

When working with textual data, it is essential to ask ourselves the following (non-exhaustive) set of questions:

• What is the alphabet and the language used in the dataset?
• Does it include any artifacts, structure, or emojis?
• What type of text is it? A paragraph, a sentence, a document?
• Does it include unknown words such as slang?
• What is the objective, what do we want to do with the text?
• Do I have the right to collect/manipulate this data?
• How do we know the model is doing the right thing?
