A Character-Level Decoder without Explicit Segmentation for Neural Machine Translation

TL;DR: In this paper, an attention-based encoder-decoder with a subword-level encoder and a character-level decoder was proposed to generate a character sequence without explicit segmentation.

Modeling Temporal Dependencies in High-Dimensional Sequences: Application to Polyphonic Music Generation and Transcription

TL;DR: A probabilistic model based on distribution estimators conditioned on a recurrent neural network that is able to discover temporal dependencies in high-dimensional sequences that outperforms many traditional models of polyphonic music on a variety of realistic datasets is introduced.

MelGAN: Generative Adversarial Networks for Conditional Waveform Synthesis

TL;DR: This article proposed a non-autoregressive, fully convolutional GAN for mel-spectrogram inversion and achieved state-of-the-art performance in speech synthesis, music domain translation and unconditional music synthesis.

Noisy Activation Functions

TL;DR: This work proposes to exploit the injection of appropriate noise so that the gradients may flow easily, even if the noiseless application of the activation function would yield zero gradient, and establishes connections to simulated annealing, making it easier to optimize hard objective functions.

Tempered Markov Chain Monte Carlo for training of Restricted Boltzmann Machines

TL;DR: This work explores the use of tempered Markov Chain Monte-Carlo for sampling in RBMs and finds both through visualization of samples and measures of likelihood that it helps both sampling and learning.
