Natural Language Processing (NLP) with R

• Comprehensive Text Processing: Offers tools for text cleaning, tokenization, stemming, and lemmatization using packages like tm and quanteda.
• Sentiment Analysis: Provides functions for assessing the sentiment of text data with packages like syuzhet.
• Topic Modeling: Facilitates topic discovery in documents using models such as Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) with text2vec and topicmodels.
• Text Classification: Supports building and evaluating models for categorizing text into predefined classes.
