Getting Started with NLU

To get your hands on the power of NLU, you just need to install it via pip and ensure Java 8 is installed and properly configured. Checkout Quickstart for more infos

pip install nlu pyspark==3.0.2

Loading and predicting with any model in 1 line python

import nlu 
nlu.load('sentiment').predict('I love NLU! <3') 

Loading and predicting with multiple models in 1 line

Get 6 different embeddings in 1 line and use them for downstream data science tasks!

nlu.load('bert elmo albert xlnet glove use').predict('I love NLU! <3')
