 ====== Machine Learning through NEEMS ======
-This tutorial gives an overview of the lecture about narrative enabled episode memories (NEEMS) by Sebastian Koralewski.
+This lecture teaches about narrative enabled episode memories (NEEMS) held by Sebastian Koralewski.
 Nowadays machine learning is applicable for a large variety of cases. This lecture shows how to use the recordings of activities performed by a robot in a kitchen environment to predict a likely course of action, based on the observed data and their probability of success, e.g. setting up a table for breakfast, or cleaning it up afterward.

 ===== Setup =====
-The platform of choice is Jupyter Notebook, a handy framework that is ready to launch in any python environment. Please find the repository's README for a setup manual. Within the Jupyter environment, there are explanations on how to solve the tasks at hand. Most of the implementation utilizes the //Pandas// and //sklearn// package, which makes analyzing and learning data easily possible.

 Some example data is provided with this tutorial in a CSV format. They contain records of robot activities, the so-called NEEMS.
-Please follow the [[https://github.com/code-iai/ease-fall-school-day-3-exercises|link to the jupyter notebook]] and open the README.md. It contains all relevant information on how to set up and start the notebook on your machine.

 Hitting the TAB button while coding can be helpful for auto-completion.
-Remember to always execute all code blocks from top to bottom, either by executing one by one or via the //restart kernel & re-run// button. Using the latter won't cause much trouble, since later code-blocks are simply missing some functionality which can be added while you progress through the notebook.

 ===== NEEMS Lecture =====
-This lecture is granulated into six consecutive sections. Since the Jupyter Notebook is a python script itself, it is important to do each section in the given order. If you separate the lecture over several sessions, remember to execute the code from previous sections before continuing your work.
