Improving Explorability in Variational Inference with Annealed Variational Objectives
Chin-Wei Huang, Shawn Tan, Alexandre Lacoste +1
Despite the advances in the representational capacity of approximate distributions for variational inference, the optimization process can still limit the density that is ultimatel…
Ordered Neurons: Integrating Tree Structures into Recurrent Neural Networks
Yikang Shen, Shawn Tan, Alessandro Sordoni +1
Natural language is hierarchically structured: smaller units (e.g., phrases) are nested within larger units (e.g., clauses). When a larger constituent ends, all of the smaller cons…
Generating Contradictory, Neutral, and Entailing Sentences
Yikang Shen, Shawn Tan, Chin-Wei Huang +1
Learning distributed sentence representations remains an interesting problem in the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP). We want to learn a model that approximates the condi…
