Word Embedding and Data Splitting

This is the second article in an eight part series on a practical guide to using neural networks, applied to real world problems. Specifically, a problem we faced at Metacortex. We needed our bots to understand when a question was being asked or a command given. The goal being to query the institutional knowledge base […]
