ODSC East 2021 is one of the largest applied data science conferences in the world. Our speakers include core contributors to many open source libraries...

Human Language Technology (HLT) cannot be “future proofed” because the target is organic, ever changing, human language. Like a weather forecast, a static model is only accurate at a point in time. What we need is the NLP equivalent of a weather app pulling in streaming live weather data. Adaptation is the future of HLT: continuously learning models that are quickly spun up with an annotation effort to “crawl”; then ada...
