Analysing Neural Language Models: Contextual Decomposition Reveals Default Reasoning in Number and Gender Assignment

Jaap Jumelet, Willem Zuidema, Dieuwke Hupkes

Extensive research has recently shown that recurrent neural language models are able to process a wide range of grammatical phenomena. How these models are able to perform these re…

Compositionality decomposed: how do neural networks generalise?

Dieuwke Hupkes, Verna Dankers, Mathijs Mul +1

Despite a multitude of empirical studies, little consensus exists on whether neural networks are able to generalise compositionally, a controversy that, in part, stems from a lack…

Assessing incrementality in sequence-to-sequence models

Dennis Ulmer, Dieuwke Hupkes, Elia Bruni

Since their inception, encoder-decoder models have successfully been applied to a wide array of problems in computational linguistics. The most recent successes are predominantly d…

On the Realization of Compositionality in Neural Networks

Joris Baan, Jana Leible, Mitja Nikolaus +5

We present a detailed comparison of two types of sequence to sequence models trained to conduct a compositional task. The models are architecturally identical at inference time, bu…

Transcoding compositionally: using attention to find more generalizable solutions

Kris Korrel, Dieuwke Hupkes, Verna Dankers +1

While sequence-to-sequence models have shown remarkable generalization power across several natural language tasks, their construct of solutions are argued to be less compositional…

The emergence of number and syntax units in LSTM language models

Yair Lakretz, German Kruszewski, Theo Desbordes +3

Recent work has shown that LSTMs trained on a generic language modeling objective capture syntax-sensitive generalizations such as long-distance number agreement. We have however n…

Formal models of Structure Building in Music, Language and Animal Songs

Willem Zuidema, Dieuwke Hupkes, Geraint Wiggins +2

Human language, music and a variety of animal vocalisations constitute ways of sonic communication that exhibit remarkable structural complexity. While the complexities of language…
