Freelancing Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/15/2021 "Perfect package for NLP folks!" 5/5 What do you like best about Gensim? Best tools for unsupervised learning, Topic and language modeling, document indexing, similarity retrieval with large corpora, Vector Space algorithms, and deep neural network supplementary tools such as NLTK, Keras, word2vec, FastText, etc. Compiled models, conda integration, API for maximizing the computations without depending on the high computational power. Visualization and model analysis is also provided that helps while developing the customized neural network models. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Gensim? Optimized for platform independence but could be hectic to manage the codebase since the Gensim dependencies are separate from the independent stand-alone packages like TensorFlow, Keras, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Gensim: Must adapt to use the Gensim package if working on the NLP topic modeling with platform independence, fast computations, distributed computing support, and supportive community to debug and solve the problems occurring during the implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Gensim solving and how is that benefiting you? Availability of word embeddings, compiled models, their methods, and documentation are the benefits. I found bit hectic while working on FastText since the separate FastText package is available and it is easy to follow their guide than Gensim. Working great with the conda installation. However, if installed separately, sometimes standalone TensorFlow and Numpy versions compatibility issues occurred. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AM Aishwarya M. Data Analyst Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/14/2021 "Easy to learn and implement library" 4/5 What do you like best about Gensim? I have used this library for topic modelling the unstructured text data. As compared to other libraries I have tested genism works super fast. Another thing I like the most about its ease of implementation if you read the documentation. Also, their pre-train corpus is useful if you focus on one domain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Gensim? Since it's a prebuild library sometimes it's hard to find the things that happened at the backend. Its something like a black box. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Gensim solving and how is that benefiting you? I solved the categorization of unstructured data problem with Gensim. It was really messed up data and with topic modelling, it was easy to cluster the documents and find out the pattern of each. Topic modelling part was easy with gensim. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gensim? - library should have been updated to work with the latest embeddings using transfer learning like bert/Albert. orlese sooner it could become outdated without recent developments Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Gensim: Its a good library to work with NLP and apply different word embeddings in your usecases. Definitely a good go for NLP scientists Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Gensim solving and how is that benefiting you? Problems solved: - Building Custom Word2vec model & fastext model - Re-Use public available word embeddings for our usecases Benefits: - Faster training - Very accurate results of semantic meaning of words and phrases - Multiple approaches like skip-gram and cbow Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
