Exploiting Multimodal Reinforcement Learning for Simultaneous Machine Translation

Julia Ive, Andy Mingren Li, Yishu Miao +3

This paper addresses the problem of simultaneous machine translation (SiMT) by exploring two main concepts: (a) adaptive policies to learn a good trade-off between high translation…

Discovering Discrete Latent Topics with Neural Variational Inference

Yishu Miao, Edward Grefenstette, Phil Blunsom

Topic models have been widely explored as probabilistic generative models of documents. Traditional inference methods have sought closed-form derivations for updating the models, h…

Latent Intention Dialogue Models

Tsung-Hsien Wen, Yishu Miao, Phil Blunsom +1

Developing a dialogue agent that is capable of making autonomous decisions and communicating by natural language is one of the long-term goals of machine learning research. Traditi…

Language as a Latent Variable: Discrete Generative Models for Sentence Compression

Yishu Miao, Phil Blunsom

In this work we explore deep generative models of text in which the latent representation of a document is itself drawn from a discrete language model distribution. We formulate a…

Bayesian Optimisation for Machine Translation

Yishu Miao, Ziyu Wang, Phil Blunsom

This paper presents novel Bayesian optimisation algorithms for minimum error rate training of statistical machine translation systems. We explore two classes of algorithms for effi…
