Sentiment Analysis With BigQuery ML - Liwaiwai

We recently announced BigQuery support for sparse features which help users to store and process the sparse features efficiently while working with them. That functionality enables users to represent sparse tensors and train machine learning models directly in the BigQuery environment. Being able to represent sparse tensors is a useful feature because sparse tensors are used extensively in encoding schemes like TF-IDF as part of data pre-processing in NLP applications and for pre-processing images with a lot of dark pixels in computer vision applications. There are numerous applications of sparse features such as text generation and sentiment analysis. In this blog, we'll demonstrate how to perform sentiment analysis with the space features in BigQuery ML by training and inferencing machine learning models using a public dataset.
