Information Retrieval

In this course we will explore how search engines work. Topics to be covered include basic text processing, index construction, text similarity, evaluation, and searching other types of media. We will examine related application areas such as language modeling, clustering, classification and e-commerce. This course is project driven: through the assignments and final project we will build a functioning search engine. (CSCI 0201)
