overfitting - theta - chain rule - softmax - statistical function backpropagation - neuron - dimensions - number of features in a vector vector - list of features, mostly expressed in a numerical value matrix - a set of vectors, with as many rows and columns as dimensions (d) in the vectors (d x d) skip gram - glove - specific word embedding software developed by the Stanford University (comparable to word2vec(?)). Richard Sochner is one of the 3 main developers of it. https://nlp.stanford.edu/projects/glove/ Concepts to explain during workshops, a possible order of explaning - different type of problems: classification / regression (information retrieval) - neural network layers principle - perceptron/softmax as a simple classifier - data : where to get, how to get, how to prepare, how much - turning words into a matrix / one-hot-vector and other techniques
