Some mistakes in subtitle. and it is better to break down the long videos into smaller sections, illustrate the concepts with more graphs,picture and animation.

The explanation is detailed and clear. But the missing star is because I hoped the course would have programming assignments using popular language as python.

Cheng is a very good teacher. I'm amazed at how clearly he can teach complex topics. All topics are covered in the book "Text Data Management and Analysis".

This course goes through the basics of text retrieval systems with an appropriate speed. However, the contents are quite out-dated for 2019.

Decent course, and I really wanted to do the programming assignments, but I wasn't able to because the packages were unusable :(

Need indetail inputs on algorithm usage and correct MeTA assignments with working scripts. That makes learning a complete curve.

Good theoretical course. Some exercises need to be fixed, as they count for approval and are misplaced.

Great at theory and concept explanation... but just few examples and zero programming applications.

this course has a lot of ideas but I think these principles need some code for implementing
