The last few decades have witnessed a fundamental change in the challenge of taking in new information. The bottleneck is no longer access to information; now it’s our ability to keep up. We all have to read more and more to keep up-to-date with our jobs, the news, and social media. We’ve looked at how AI can improve people’s work by helping with this information deluge and one potential answer is to have algorithms automatically summarize longer texts.

Do we always need human level accuracy in real world data? Or can we sometimes do with less? In this blog post we will explore how a fast baseline can decide which sentences are easy or difficult. By only using expensive classifiers on the difficult sentences we can save computational time.

We introduce a novel adaptive attention encoder-decoder framework, a state of the art image-captioning deep learning model that significantly outperforms all existing systems on the COCO image captioning challenge data and Flickr30K.

We propose and analyze a series of augmentations and modifications to LSTM networks resulting in improved performance for text classification datasets.

We have developed a single deep neural network model which can learn five different natural language processing tasks. Our model achieves state-of-the-art results on syntactic chunking, dependency parsing, semantic relatedness, and textual entailment.

We introduce the Dynamic Coattention Network, a state of the art question answering deep learning model that significantly outperforms all existing systems on the Stanford Question Answering dataset.

We published a new neural network building block, called a QRNN, that runs and trains much faster than traditional models due to better parallelism. Although our goal was speed, the new model also performs more accurately on every task we tried it on.

If you were a small child and wanted to ask what an object was but didn't have the vocabulary for it, how do you refer to it? By pointing at it! Surprisingly, neural networks can benefit from the same tactic as a five year old to improve on a variety of language tasks.

As part of our research into pointer sentinel mixture models, we've created and published the WikiText language modeling dataset produced using over 28k Wikipedia articles.

We integrate promising recent developments in NMT, including subword splitting and back-translation for monolingual data augmentation, and introduce the Y-LSTM, a novel neural translation architecture.

Neural network architectures with memory and attention mechanisms exhibit certain reasoning capabilities required for question answering.
Caiming Xiong - April 04, 2016
We published new state of the art results on a variety of natural language processing (NLP) tasks. Our model, which we call the Dynamic Memory Network (DMN), combines two lines of recent work on memory and attention mechanisms in deep learning.
