Understanding Word Frequency with TfidfVectorizer: A Guide to Accurate Calculations
Understanding Word Frequency with TfidfVectorizer When working with text data, one of the most common tasks is to analyze the frequency of words or phrases within a dataset. In this context, we’re using TF-IDF (Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency) vectorization to transform our text data into numerical representations that can be used for machine learning models. In this article, we’ll explore how to calculate word frequencies using TfidfVectorizer. Introduction to TfidfVectorizer TfidfVectorizer is a powerful tool in scikit-learn’s feature extraction module that converts text data into TF-IDF vectors.
