PyPI version Python 3.8+ License: MIT

๐Ÿค” The Problem with Current NLP Libraries

If you've worked with NLP preprocessing, you've probably faced these frustrating issues:

โŒ Multiple Library Chaos

The old way - importing multiple libraries for basic preprocessing

import nltk import spacy import re import string from bs4 import BeautifulSoup from textblob import TextBlob

โŒ Poor Tokenization

Current libraries struggle with modern text patterns:

  • NLTK: Can't handle $20, 20Rs, support@company.com properly
  • spaCy: Struggles with emoji-text combinations like awesome๐Ÿ˜Štext
  • TextBlob: Poor performance on hashtags, mentions, and currency patterns
  • All libraries: Fail to recognize complex patterns like user@domain.com, #hashtag, @mentions as single tokens

โŒ Slow Performance

  • NLTK: Extremely slow on large datasets
  • spaCy: Heavy and resource-intensive for simple preprocessing
  • TextBlob: Not optimized for batch processing
  • All libraries: No built-in parallel processing for large-scale data

โŒ Incomplete Preprocessing

No single library handles all these tasks efficiently:

  • HTML tag removal
  • URL cleaning
  • Email detection
  • Currency recognition ($20, โ‚น100, 20USD)
  • Social media content (#hashtags, @mentions)
  • Emoji handling
  • Spelling correction
  • Normalization

โŒ Complex Setup

Typical preprocessing pipeline with multiple libraries

def preprocess_text(text):

Step 1: HTML removal

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup text = BeautifulSoup(text, "html.parser").get_text()

Step 2: URL removal

import re text = re.sub(r'https?://\S+', '', text)

Step 3: Lowercase

text = text.lower()

Step 4: Remove emojis

import emoji text = emoji.replace_emoji(text, replace='')

Step 5: Tokenization

import nltk tokens = nltk.word_tokenize(text)

Step 6: Remove punctuation

import string tokens = [t for t in tokens if t not in string.punctuation]

Step 7: Spelling correction

from textblob import TextBlob corrected = [str(TextBlob(word).correct()) for word in tokens]

return corrected

โœ… How UltraNLP Solves Everything

UltraNLP is designed to solve all these problems with a single, ultra-fast library:

๐ŸŽฏ One Library, Everything Included

import ultranlp

๐Ÿ”ฅ Advanced Tokenization

UltraNLP correctly handles ALL these challenging patterns:

text = """ Hey! ๐Ÿ˜Š Check $20.99 deals at https://example.com Contact support@company.com or call +1-555-123-4567 Join our #BlackFriday sale @2:30PM today! Price: โ‚น1,500.50 for premium features ๐Ÿ’ฐ Don't miss user@domain.co.uk for updates! """

result = ultranlp.preprocess(text) print(result['tokens'])

Output: Correctly identifies each pattern as separate tokens: ['hey', '$20.99', 'deals', 'support@company.com', '+1-555-123-4567', '#BlackFriday', '2:30PM', 'โ‚น1,500.50', 'user@domain.co.uk']

What makes our tokenization special:

  • โœ… Currency: $20, โ‚น100, 20USD, 100Rs
  • โœ… Emails: user@domain.com, support@company.co.uk
  • โœ… Social Media: #hashtag, @mention
  • โœ… Phone Numbers: +1-555-123-4567, (555) 123-4567
  • โœ… URLs: https://example.com, www.site.com
  • โœ… Date/Time: 12/25/2024, 2:30PM
  • โœ… Emojis: ๐Ÿ˜Š, ๐Ÿ’ฐ, ๐ŸŽ‰ (handles attached to text)
  • โœ… Contractions: don't, won't, it's
  • โœ… Hyphenated: state-of-the-art, multi-threaded
