Hi,
I am trying to get spaCy to differentiate between the following things:
marketing vs. marketer
traveling vs. traveler
Is there an easy way to differentiate between these using POS tag? Using the en_core_web_sm library it seems like these all come up as nouns, i.e. traveling without a prepositional phrase gets classified as a noun. The text is not formatted as normal sentences but as single words often.
Is the best way to do this to train the POS model?
Hi @meatball_nlp,
Marketing and marketer can both be nouns, so without context those taggings are reasonable. If you're working without context, you'll need to look at lexical semantic methods, such as word vectors or a knowledge base such as WordNet.
This is really a more general NLP question though, that relates less to Prodigy, so it's not really in-scope for the forum. I've therefore unlisted the thread, and we won't be able to help on this type of question in future.
