Message from Eric Zhao regarding presentation materials: 

Hello everybody,
If you attended this Wednesday's talk on NLP/NLU fundamentals and would like to review the notes or experiment with the demo code yourself, I attached a .zip with the Jupyter notebook from the presentation. If you want to be able to run the demo code yourself, there are a few steps you'd need to take.

1st - Install everything that I list in quantPrez/README
2nd - Install and launch the CoreNLP library (stanfordnlp.github.io/CoreNLP/)
3rd - Run the Jupyter notebook

If you have any questions or you're interested in talking/working on NLU and ML apps, for SIF or otherwise, feel free to shoot me an email at elzhao@caltech.edu.
Eric Zhao
