Advanced Machine Learning
Guest auditor program

The course introduces Natural Language Processing (NLP), classic models such as RNNs, and proceeds to modern models such as Transformers. Pre-trained and large language models (LLMs) are introduced and rounded off with Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG).
In later half of the course, Knowledge Graphs (KGs) will be introduced, and how RAG techniques can be used to perform Question Answering (QA) over Knowledge Graphs using LLMs.

The goal is to introduce NLP to students, and quickly bring them to the modern landscape of LLMs. The focus on LLMs is to teach students how to build QA systems over text data and also knowledge graphs.
