Practice Midterm Exam for Natural Language Processing
Name:
Net ID
Instructions
In the actual midterm there will be 7 questions, each will be worth 15 points, for a total of 105 possible points.
Please write your name and id number on your test. If any part of your test gets loose from the original, please
write your name on that as well.
This practice test will have a different number of problems that are intended to be of the same basic type
of question as on the actual midterm. THE PRACTICE TEST IS DESIGNED TO TAKE LONGER TO
COMPLETE THAN THE ACTUAL TEST WOULD (AROUND 2 HOURS, RATHER THAN 1:15).
All answers should be written directly on the test booklet, inside of the indicated tables and boxes. Extra space
is provided to allow room for cross-outs and corrections. Please feel free to use the backs of pages and the
extra blank pages (at the end of the test) provided as scrap paper. Please do not remove any pages from the
test and please do not add any pages to the test. Extra scrap paper is available if you need it.
This test is an open book/open notes test: Please feel free to bring your text book, your notes, copies of
class lectures and other reading material to the test. A calculator (or cell phone, used as a calculator) is also
permitted and it is OK to look at materials on the web in order to read helpful information, being mindful of
the time limit. Just don’t use a program that solves a problem for you, e.g., do not find a part of speech tagger
and run it if asked to manually annotate mark parts of speech – that WOULD be cheating.
Answer all questions on the test. If you show your work and you make a simple arithmetic mistake, but
it is clear you knew how to do it, you will get partial credit.
