It's a pity most recent #NLProc grads I interview don't know EM since teaching HMMs have fallen out of favor with the rise of DL models (HMMs are the first place many first encounter EM in NLP). General ML courses seem to skip EM too since there is already so much to cover in DL.
I teach spectral methods for HMM at @Caltech and contrast it with EM. But it’s a foundations class
