Introduction to Information Retrieval: Slides

Up-to-date slides

An up-to-date set of slides is available as a zip file (29 MB). The source files for producing the slides are here (25 MB). Slide sets for individual chapters can be downloaded from the home page of the Stuttgart IIR class. These slides are in latex beamer, so you need to know/learn latex to modify them.

Powerpoint slides

We are working on new powerpoint slides, but it will take a few months until we can post them here. There is an up-to-date set of powerpoints available from CUP, but they cannot be easily modified. Older, very out-of-date powerpoint slides are here. You may also want to check out T. K. Prasad's ppt slides.

Really old slides

Powerpoint slides for a few chapters (10, 11, 12, 15, 18) will not be available in updated form until the end of the year. We are providing the most recent version here (1.1 MB). But be forewarned: they may not match the corresponding IIR chapters at all.
