Breaking the Softmax Bottleneck: A High-Rank RNN Language Model

Zhilin Yang, Zihang Dai, Ruslan Salakhutdinov +1

We formulate language modeling as a matrix factorization problem, and show that the expressiveness of Softmax-based models (including the majority of neural language models) is lim…

Large-scale Cloze Test Dataset Created by Teachers

Qizhe Xie, Guokun Lai, Zihang Dai +1

Cloze tests are widely adopted in language exams to evaluate students' language proficiency. In this paper, we propose the first large-scale human-created cloze test dataset CLOTH,…

An Interpretable Knowledge Transfer Model for Knowledge Base Completion

Qizhe Xie, Xuezhe Ma, Zihang Dai +1

Knowledge bases are important resources for a variety of natural language processing tasks but suffer from incompleteness. We propose a novel embedding model, \emph{ITransF}, to pe…

Good Semi-supervised Learning that Requires a Bad GAN

Zihang Dai, Zhilin Yang, Fan Yang +2

Semi-supervised learning methods based on generative adversarial networks (GANs) obtained strong empirical results, but it is not clear 1) how the discriminator benefits from joint…

Calibrating Energy-based Generative Adversarial Networks

Zihang Dai, Amjad Almahairi, Philip Bachman +2

In this paper, we propose to equip Generative Adversarial Networks with the ability to produce direct energy estimates for samples.Specifically, we propose a flexible adversarial t…
