Financial News & Sentiment Data Engineering
Engineer pipelines that collect, clean, deduplicate, tag and score financial news and text data, producing point-in-time sentiment datasets suitable for research.
This course teaches natural language processing techniques for financial text such as news articles, company filings and earnings call transcripts. You will move from classical text representations to transformer-based embeddings and classifiers, and learn how to align text events with market data without introducing lookahead. The course also covers entity linking, topic modeling and how to evaluate text-derived features in a research setting.
