I enjoyed the course. This course took me waaaay more time than I thought because I struggled with a few issues. First, I wish Id started by taking the NLP online course before starting the Capstone ( <url> There was an issue installing RWeka, RJava and it took me several days to work through the issues. I eventually moved to using quanteda ( <url> I also waited far too long to develop a method to test my model using a subset of the training data, so I could test whether changes to my model improved and reduced performance. It turns out that my model trained on a 25% sample performed just as well as a model trained on 100%. Im thankful for the Discussion Forum and final peer review process. Both helped me learn how I can improve my model and demo application. I really appreciate the instructors for creating this specialization. Ive learned a lot.
