Thinking on your Feet: Reinforcement Learning for Incremental Language Tasks

Yandex School of Data Analysis Conference Machine Learning: Prospects and Applications In this talk, Ill discuss two realworld language applications that require thinking on your feet: synchronous machine translation (or machine si multaneous interpretation) and question answering (when questions are revealed one piece at a time). In both cases, effective algorithms for these tasks must interrupt the input stream and decide when to provide output. Synchronou
