(3) for everyone else, before taking the course, you need to know the following: programming (C/C++, Java, Perl, or Python), unix, a college-level course on statistics and probability, finite-state automaton, regular expression, regular grammar, and context-free grammar. You should register for Section B.
If you believe you meet the prerequisites, please email Joyce at phoneme@u.washington.edu for the add code. In your email, please specify the following: - Which section are you registering for?
