Dear experts,

I'm doing my assignment and I don't know if I am on the right track.

Could you give me some advices? Thank you.

4(b) To perform accurately, NLP algorithms very often explore multiple hypotheses before finally choosing a best one. Describe a general two-stage strategy that NLP algorithms can use to explore and evaluate multiple possibilities. [3 points]

A way that language computer programs (NLP) can look at and decide between different options is to do it in two steps: step one : Generation of candidates computer programs that understand language (NLP) come up with a list of possible candidates, this can include making a list of different ways to understand something or finding different solutions. This step might involve making a list of different sentence structures, figuring out which meaning of a word is being used. The primary objective of this stage is to generate a diverse range of possibilities, each of which can then be further evaluated in the subsequent stage of the process.

step two: Evaluation of candidates In the next step, the computer programs that understand language (NLP) look at each possible answer they came up with in the first step and decide which one is the best based on things like grammar, making sense, being related to what they're trying to do, and other important factors. The program chooses the answer that is probably right. [1]
