Natural Language Processing vs. Machine Learning vs. Deep Learning – Syntax and Semantics

Natural Language Processing (or NLP) is an area that is a confluence of Artificial Intelligence and linguistics. It involves intelligent analysis of written language. If you have a lot of data written in plain text and you want to automatically get some insights from it, you need to use NLP techniques. These insights could be -- sentiment analysis, information extraction, information retrieval, search etc. to name a few. Machine Learning (or ML) is an area of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that is a set of statistical techniques for problem solving.
