Bag of Words

The Bag of Words model is a way to represent text data for analysis, focusing only on the presence and frequency of words, regardless of order or grammar. Imagine listing all the unique words in a document and counting how many times each appears. This creates a "bag" of words, which can then be used to compare documents or understand their content. It's a simple, effective method for tasks like text classification, capturing key themes by analyzing word patterns without considering sentence structure.
