7 Advanced Feature Engineering Tricks for Text Data Using LLM Embeddings
Image by Editor<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Introduction<\/h2>\n

Large language models (LLMs) are not only good at understanding and generating text; they can also turn raw text into numerical representations called embeddings. These embeddings are useful for incorporating additional information into traditional predictive machine learning models\u2014such as those used in scikit-learn<\/a><\/strong>\u2014to improve downstream performance.<\/p>\n

This article presents seven advanced Python examples of feature engineering tricks that add extra value to text data by leveraging LLM-generated embeddings, thereby enhancing the accuracy and robustness of downstream machine learning models that rely on text, in applications such as sentiment analysis, topic classification, document clustering, and semantic similarity detection.<\/p>\n

Common setup for all examples<\/strong><\/p>\n

Unless stated otherwise, the seven example tricks below make use of this common setup. We rely on Sentence Transformers<\/a><\/strong> for embeddings and scikit-learn<\/a><\/strong> for modeling utilities.<\/p>\n
