Obligatory assignment 1 is now online

The first obligatory assignment is now online, on the Git repository. It deals with building a simple neural document classifier using bags-of-words as features.

The assignment is due February 14, but feel free to start working on it. We have already covered linear classifiers this week, and will cover training feed-forward neural networks next week.

We will provide extensive practice with building neural classifiers with PyTorch at the group sessions.
