    Abstract: A method for evaluating robustness of one or more target neural network models using natural typos. The method includes receiving one or more natural typo generation rules associated with a first task associated with a first input document type, receiving a first target neural network model, and receiving a first document and corresponding its ground truth labels. The method further includes generating one or more natural typos for the first document based on the one or more natural typo generation rules, and providing, to the first target neural network model, a test document generated based on the first document and the one or more natural typos as an input document to generate a first output. A robustness evaluation result of the first target neural network model is generated based on a comparison between the output and the ground truth labels.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for efficient off-policy credit assignment (ECA) in reinforcement learning. ECA allows principled credit assignment for off-policy samples, and therefore improves sample efficiency and asymptotic performance. One aspect of ECA is to formulate the optimization of expected return as approximate inference, where policy is approximating a learned prior distribution, which leads to a principled way of utilizing off-policy samples. Other features are also provided.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for dual sequence inference using a neural network model includes generating a codependent representation based on a first input representation of a first sequence and a second input representation of a second sequence using an encoder of the neural network model and generating an inference based on the codependent representation using a decoder of the neural network model. The neural network model includes a plurality of model parameters learned according to a machine learning process. The encoder includes a plurality of coattention layers arranged sequentially, each coattention layer being configured to receive a pair of layer input representations and generate one or more summary representations, and an output layer configured to receive the one or more summary representations from a last layer among the plurality of coattention layers and generate the codependent representation.

    Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to an end-to-end neural network for question answering, referred to herein as “dynamic coattention network (DCN)”. Roughly described, the DCN includes an encoder neural network and a coattentive encoder that capture the interactions between a question and a document in a so-called “coattention encoding”. The DCN also includes a decoder neural network and highway maxout networks that process the coattention encoding to estimate start and end positions of a phrase in the document that responds to the question.

    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a pipelined natural language question answering system that improves a BERT-based system. Specifically, the natural language question answering system uses a pipeline of neural networks each trained to perform a particular task. The context selection network identifies premium context from context for the question. The question type network identifies the natural language question as a yes, no, or span question and a yes or no answer to the natural language question when the question is a yes or no question. The span extraction model determines an answer span to the natural language question when the question is a span question.

    Abstract: The disclosed technology teaches a deep end-to-end speech recognition model, including using multi-objective learning criteria to train a deep end-to-end speech recognition model on training data comprising speech samples temporally labeled with ground truth transcriptions. The multi-objective learning criteria updates model parameters of the model over one thousand to millions of backpropagation iterations by combining, at each iteration, a maximum likelihood objective function that modifies the model parameters to maximize a probability of outputting a correct transcription and a policy gradient function that modifies the model parameters to maximize a positive reward defined based on a non-differentiable performance metric which penalizes incorrect transcriptions in accordance with their conformity to corresponding ground truth transcriptions; and upon convergence after a final backpropagation iteration, persisting the modified model parameters learned by using the multi-objective learning criteria with the model to be applied to further end-to-end speech recognition.

    Abstract: The disclosed technology teaches regularizing a deep end-to-end speech recognition model to reduce overfitting and improve generalization: synthesizing sample speech variations on original speech samples labelled with text transcriptions, and modifying a particular original speech sample to independently vary tempo and pitch of the original speech sample while retaining the labelled text transcription of the original speech sample, thereby producing multiple sample speech variations having multiple degrees of variation from the original speech sample. The disclosed technology includes training a deep end-to-end speech recognition model, on thousands to millions of original speech samples and the sample speech variations on the original speech samples, that outputs recognized text transcriptions corresponding to speech detected in the original speech samples and the sample speech variations. Additional sample speech variations include augmented volume, temporal alignment offsets and the addition of pseudo-random noise to the particular original speech sample.

    Abstract: Approaches for interpretable counting for visual question answering include a digital image processor, a language processor, and a counter. The digital image processor identifies objects in an image, maps the identified objects into an embedding space, generates bounding boxes for each of the identified objects, and outputs the embedded objects paired with their bounding boxes. The language processor embeds a question into the embedding space. The scorer determines scores for the identified objects. Each respective score determines how well a corresponding one of the identified objects is responsive to the question. The counter determines a count of the objects in the digital image that are responsive to the question based on the scores. The count and a corresponding bounding box for each object included in the count are output. In some embodiments, the counter determines the count interactively based on interactions between counted and uncounted objects.
