Course Syllabus

Abstract

This course focuses on applied methods and existing tools for information retrieval: web scrap-ing, data preprocessing, natural language processing. All methods considered in this course require basic knowledge of discrete mathematics and probabilistic theory. For instance, most NLP and IR methods use conditional probability. In this course, we show the implementation of contemporary approaches in existing software packages (preferably in the python frameworks), and demonstrate how these methods can be used for the solution of some real-world problems.

Assessment Elements

Assessment Elements

  • non-blocking cumulative mark for the work during the modulus
    The cumulative mark for the work during the modulus is based on the mark for the home tasks and on the activity during the seminars
  • non-blocking final exam
    Final exam can be replaced with course project. The grade for the course project must be set be-fore the final exam.
Interim Assessment

Interim Assessment

  • Interim assessment (2 module)
    0.4 * cumulative mark for the work during the modulus + 0.6 * final exam
