Understanding Bigrams and Duplicate Frequency Summation Using Pandas in Python
Understanding Bigrams and Duplicate Frequency Summation Background In natural language processing (NLP) and text analysis, bigrams refer to sequences of two consecutive words or tokens in a sentence or document. They are commonly used as features for NLP tasks such as sentiment analysis, topic modeling, and language modeling. Given a dataset with bigram frequencies, the task is to identify duplicate bigrams and sum up their frequencies. Duplicate bigrams can occur when words within a bigram are reversed (e.
