Unsupervised Learning of Disentangled and Interpretable Representations from Sequential Data

Wei-Ning Hsu, Yu Zhang, James Glass

We present a factorized hierarchical variational autoencoder, which learns disentangled and interpretable representations from sequential data without supervision. Specifically, we…

Simple Recurrent Units for Highly Parallelizable Recurrence

Tao Lei, Yu Zhang, Sida I. Wang +2

Common recurrent neural architectures scale poorly due to the intrinsic difficulty in parallelizing their state computations. In this work, we propose the Simple Recurrent Unit (SR…

Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Robust Speech Recognition via Variational Autoencoder-Based Data Augmentation

Wei-Ning Hsu, Yu Zhang, James Glass

Domain mismatch between training and testing can lead to significant degradation in performance in many machine learning scenarios. Unfortunately, this is not a rare situation for…

Learning Latent Representations for Speech Generation and Transformation

Wei-Ning Hsu, Yu Zhang, James Glass

An ability to model a generative process and learn a latent representation for speech in an unsupervised fashion will be crucial to process vast quantities of unlabelled speech dat…

Recurrent Neural Network Encoder with Attention for Community Question Answering

Wei-Ning Hsu, Yu Zhang, James Glass

We apply a general recurrent neural network (RNN) encoder framework to community question answering (cQA) tasks. Our approach does not rely on any linguistic processing, and can be…

On Training Bi-directional Neural Network Language Model with Noise Contrastive Estimation

Tianxing He, Yu Zhang, Jasha Droppo +1

We propose to train bi-directional neural network language model(NNLM) with noise contrastive estimation(NCE). Experiments are conducted on a rescore task on the PTB data set. It i…
