        # NLP 101: a Resource Repository for Deep Learning and Natural Language Processing

This document is drafted for those who have enthusiasm for Deep Learning in natural language processing. If there are any good recommendations or suggestions, I will try to add more.

_This document is drafted with the rules as follows:_

- Materials that are considered to cover the same grounds will not be recorded repeatedly.

- Only one among those within similar level of difficulty will be recorded.

- Materials with different level of difficulty that need prerequsite or additional learning will be recorded.

## Mathematics

#### Statistics and Probabilities

| Source | Description |

|:---:|---|

| [Statistics 110](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2SOU6wwxB0uwwH80KTQ6ht66KWxbzTIo) | A lecture on Probability that can be easily understood by non-engineering major students. |

| [Brandon Foltz's Statistics](https://www.youtube.com/user/BCFoltz/playlists) | Brandon Foltz's Probability and Statistics lectures are posted on Youtube and is rather short, so it can be easily accessed during daily commute. |




### Linear Algebra

| Source | Description |

|:---:|---|

| [Essence of Linear Algebra](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZHQObOWTQDPD3MizzM2xVFitgF8hE_ab) | A Linear algebraic lecture on Youtube channel 3Blue1Brown. Could be a big help for those planning to take undergraduate-level linear algebra since it allows overall understanding. It provides intutitively understandable visual aids to getting the picture of Linear algebra. |

| [Linear Algebra](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZK3O402wf1c&list=PLE7DDD91010BC51F8) | A legendary lecture of professor Gilbert Strang. |

As Linear algbra is prerequisite knowledge here, it is quite difficult to understand yet a great lecture to learn how Linear algebra is actually applied in the field of Machine Learning. |




### Basic mathematics & Overview

| Source | Description |

|:---:|---|

| [Essence of calculus](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZHQObOWTQDMsr9K-rj53DwVRMYO3t5Yr) | A calculus lecture by the channel 3Blue1Brown mentioned above, helpful for those who want an overview of calculus likewise. | 

| [Calculus](https://ocw.mit.edu/ans7870/resources/Strang/Edited/Calculus/Calculus.pdf) | A coursebook on calculus written by professor Gilbert Strang. There is no need to go through the whole book, but chapters 2-4, 11-13, 15-16 are very worth studying. |

| [Mathematics for Machine Learning](https://mml-book.github.io/) | A book on all the mathematical knowledge accompanied with machine learning. Mathematic knowledge within the collegiate level of natural sciences or engineering is preferable here, as the explanations are mainly broad-brush. |




## Deep Learning and Natural Language Processing

### Deep Learning

| Source | Description |

|:---:|---|

| [CS230](https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=cs230) | A Deep Learning lecture of the renouned professor Andrew Ng, who has recently founded a startup on AI education. |

| [Deep Learning Book](https://www.deeplearningbook.org/) | A book written by Ian Goodfellow, the father of GAN, and other renouned professors. |

| [Dive into Deep Learning](https://d2l.ai/) | While the 'Deep Learning Book' above has theoretical explanation, this book also includes the codes to check how the notion is actually immplemented. |

| [Grokking Deep Learning](https://www.manning.com/books/grokking-deep-learning) | Teaches readers how to write basic elements of the neural network with NumPy, without using Deep Learning Frameworks. Also a good material to study how high-level APIs work under the hood. |




### Natural Language Processing 

| Source | Description |

| [Eisenstein's NLP Note](https://github.com/jacobeisenstein/gt-nlp-class/blob/master/notes/eisenstein-nlp-notes.pdf) | Awesome book to read that deals with not only NLP with machine learning, but also the basic linguistic knowledge to understand it. Eisenstein's book [Introduction to Natural Language Processing](https://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Language-Processing-Adaptive-Computation/dp/0262042843) was published based on this note. |

| [CS224N ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rXD5-xhemo&list=PLoROMvodv4rOhcuXMZkNm7j3fVwBBY42z) | Awesome NLP lecture from Stanford. It has the 2019 version, dealing with the latest trends.|

| [CS224U ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZ_Jrc_nRJY&list=PLoROMvodv4rObpMCir6rNNUlFAn56Js20) | An NLP lecture that was revalued since the advent of GLUE benchmark. Recommended to be taken after CS224N, and its merit is that it provides exercises in Pytorch. |

| [Code-First Intro to Natural Language Processing](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtmWHNX-gukKocXQOkQjuVxglSDYWsSh9) | A code-first NLP lecture by Rachel Thomas, the co-founder of fast.ai. The motivation that Rachel Thomas gives is mind blowing. | 

| [Natural Language Processing with PyTorch](https://www.amazon.com/Natural-Language-Processing-PyTorch-Applications/dp/1491978236) | An NLP book from O'REILLY, known for numerous data science books of great quality. It is PyTorch-friendly as all the codes are written in PyTorch. |
