toolkit for the processing of natural language text. It supports the most
common NLP tasks, such as tokenization, sentence segmentation,
part-of-speech tagging, named entity extraction, chunking, and parsing.

Dependency page for more details:

sentence-transformers was also introduced. This version also includes fixes
