We are in the course of hiring two new associate professors in Natural Language Processing to the Language Technology Group at IFI. As part of the procedure, the best candidates are invited to an interview and a trial lecture. We asked them to give a 45-min. lecture on a topic of their choice that would be appropriate for beginning master's students and could fit into IN4080. The lectures will give you a first taste of IN4080 and a flying start to the semester.
