Here's a link to the course website: http://www.inf.ed.ac.uk/teaching/courses/iaml/ I took this course and Professor Lavrenko is one of the best lecturers at the uni.

I did the course several years ago when I studied there. He is excellent. Also recommend his text technologies course (lecture notes but no videos here) : http://www.inf.ed.ac.uk/teaching/courses/tts/

Interesting to see that Edinburgh is using US style position naming in addition to more traditional UK positions (i.e. "Lecturer" == "Assistant Professor", "Reader" == "Associate Professor" etc.)

It's probably because a few of our lecturers are actually from/did their PhDs in the US :)
