## Dataset Creation and Processing Overview
This dataset underwent a comprehensive process of loading, cleaning, processing, and preparing, incorporating a range of data manipulation and NLP techniques to optimize its utility for machine learning models, particularly in natural language processing.
### Data Loading and Initial Cleaning
- **Source**: Loaded from the Hugging Face dataset repository [bprateek/amazon_product_description](https://huggingface.co/datasets/bprateek/amazon_product_description).
- **Conversion to Pandas DataFrame**: For ease of data manipulation.
- **Null Value Removal**: Rows with null values in the 'About Product' column were discarded.
### Data Cleaning and NLP Processing
- **Sentence Extraction**: 'About Product' descriptions were split into sentences, identifying common phrases.
- **Emoji and Special Character Removal**: A regex function removed these elements from the product descriptions.
- **Common Phrase Elimination**: A function was used to strip common phrases from each product description.
- **Improving Writing Standards**: Adjusted capitalization, punctuation, and replaced '&' with 'and' for better readability and formalization.
### Sentence Similarity Analysis
- **Model Application**: The pre-trained Sentence Transformer model 'all-MiniLM-L6-v2' was used.
- **Sentence Comparison**: Identified the most similar sentence to each product name within the cleaned product descriptions.
### Dataset Refinement
- **Column Selection**: Retained relevant columns for final dataset.
- **Image URL Processing**: Split multiple image URLs into individual URLs, removing specific unwanted URLs.
### Image Validation
- **Image URL Validation**: Implemented a function to verify the validity of each image URL.
- **Filtering Valid Images**: Retained only rows with valid image URLs.
### Dataset Splitting for Machine Learning
- **Creation of Train, Test, and Eval Sets**: Used scikit-learn's `train_test_split` for dataset division.
