Advanced Topics in Natural Language Processing
In this course we will teach advanced topics in natural language processing, ranging from general techniques such as foundation models for NLP to specific topics such as information extraction, question answering, misinformation detection, summarization, creative generation, and NLP for Science. Review of classic as well as state-of-the-art techniques and remaining challenges, and exploration of recent proposals for meeting these challenges. Intended for graduate students doing research in natural language processing. The instructor will write most of the slides and hand-outs, give survey about the best papers from The following books may provide some useful background:
