HW7: Same rules as above
Rather close to the due moment, but just a note: I’ve gotten a few questions about what I intended on HW7, 3) of part 2, when I said “Same rules as above.”
What I don’t mean is that you should draw two trees. Just draw one tree. There’s no relevant ambiguity in (f). The rules I was really referring to were: Just draw the tree(s), no steps, no features being checked.
Random question: I’m sorry if you addressed this already and I missed/forgot it, but what’s the deal with the extra credit? Does it have a due date, or just by the end of the semester? And are there further specifications than what’s outlined in the extra credit section of this website?

Hi — no specific due date on this (other than the day of the final), and the information on the course website is all I had in mind for this. It’s better to do it sooner rather than later just so the memory doesn’t fade further, I suppose. The assignment is pretty free-form: just write down what you understood the talk to be about, what the problem was, how the researchers approached it, what they found, questions you had.
