## ***Description***  
**Classifying symptom (as a text data) into a disease**  
> [Dataset link](https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/niyarrbarman/symptom2disease)

### ***Main contents***  
- **Data folder**: Containing dataset and train and test sets
- **Constants.py**: Some fixed values to use in other files as `CONSTANTS` class
- **Other .ipynb files**: Jupyter notebooks containing actual work
- **Results.xlsx**: Excel worksheet containing results
- **conda_nlp_environment.yml**: Python modules requirements

## ***How to run***
> **Using [Anaconda](https://www.anaconda.com/)**  
1. **Clone this repository**  
    ```bash
        git clone git@git.hiast.edu.sy:almohanad.hafez/nlp-project.git
    ```
1. **Open Anaconda Prompt**  
1. **Navigate to the repository directory in your machine `cd <path_to_repository_directory>/nlp-project`**  
    **If you want to navigate to a disk other than C:\, let's say D, you can run `D:`**
1. **Create the Conda Environment from the .yml File**  
    ```bash
        conda env create -f conda_nlp_environment.yml
    ```
1. **Activate the New Environment**
    ```bash
        conda activate NLP
    ```
1. **Open jupyter notebook**    
    ```bash
        jupyter notebook
    ```
