Hi, there! I’m Zhixu and very glad you visit my personal website. I’m currently a master student at the University of Helsinki. My major is language technology/natural language processing. I would like to share my study notes about NLP and Finnish learning here. Please feel free to look around.
My had a number of math & programming courses in my undergraduate study, including Calculus, Linear algebra, Probabilities & Statistics, Applied Stochastic Process, Mathematical modelling, Econometrics, Machine learning and data mining, and Python & Big data. I also list some master-level courses that I took at UH:
- Computational syntax, introduced syntactic konwledge and different algorithms for parsing. For example, HMM(Hidden Markov Model) and CFG(Context Free Grammar).
- Computational semantics, discussed compositional semantics and distributional semantics. Also, Word2vec, Singular Value Decomposition and disambiguiation.
- Introduction to deep learning, introduced FFNN, CNN, RNN, LSTM, Seq2Seq, Transformers. Also include regularization, optimization.
- Introduction to Natural Language Processing, explained how to do morphological analysis, word sense disambiguation, POS/Sequence labeling.
