Please let me know if you find the materials helpful. It has been fun teaching Advanced NLP for three semesters in a row.

I was honored to see materials from previous semesters incorporated into Berkeley’s Advanced NLP course by @sewon__min and @alsuhr, and to see so many people learning from the materials on YouTube.
