Computer Vision and Machine Learning from the Stanford AI course (2011) - UDACITY - Sebastian Thrun lectures on Self-Driving Cars and Search Engines

I recommend checking those out, not bad quick intro to Computer Vision and links to leading research and technology, also some directions about sensory data procesing, Machine Learning and Self-Driving Cars (referred as Robotics there). NLP part is decent intro either, but for more technical intro, see another course, cited in my recent post. I suggest the Computer Vision and Robotics sections at: https://www.ai-class.com/home/  for quick amusing visual intro. Sebastian Thrun is very funny, he was the leader of Stanford...

In my opinion there's an apparent technological spike in the last few years, and...

News: Computer Vision, NLP etc. - On-line Courses from Berkeley, Stanford, MTU

A friend noticed me about those. The Stanford NLP course might be good for refreshment of knowledge or for a thorough introductory study, but it's too engaging and I personally don't like the copyright policy that's mentioned. My personal suggestion is enrolling for the Computer Vision course from Berkeley: http://www.vision-class.org/# If you're looking for an on-line NLP course, I suggest to check out the course of my fellow Bulgarian researcher Preslav Nakov, who had a degree from Berkeley, if you care for this. He taught...
