The authors align books to their movie releases to provide rich descriptive explanations for visual content that go semantically far beyond the captions available in the current datasets, and propose a context-aware CNN to combine information from multiple sources.
Abstract
Books are a rich source of both fine-grained information, how a character, an object or a scene looks like, as well as high-level semantics, what someone is thinking, feeling and how these states evolve through a story. This paper aims to align books to their movie releases in order to provide rich descriptive explanations for visual content that go semantically far beyond the captions available in the current datasets. To align movies and books we propose a neural sentence embedding that is trained in an unsupervised way from a large corpus of books, as well as a video-text neural embedding for computing similarities between movie clips and sentences in the book. We propose a context-aware CNN to combine information from multiple sources. We demonstrate good quantitative performance for movie/book alignment and show several qualitative examples that showcase the diversity of tasks our model can be used for.

BERT: Pre-training of Deep Bidirectional Transformers for Language Understanding

TL;DR: BERT as mentioned in this paper pre-trains deep bidirectional representations from unlabeled text by jointly conditioning on both left and right context in all layers, which can be fine-tuned with just one additional output layer to create state-of-the-art models for a wide range of tasks.

Representation Learning with Contrastive Predictive Coding

TL;DR: This work proposes a universal unsupervised learning approach to extract useful representations from high-dimensional data, which it calls Contrastive Predictive Coding, and demonstrates that the approach is able to learn useful representations achieving strong performance on four distinct domains: speech, images, text and reinforcement learning in 3D environments.

DistilBERT, a distilled version of BERT: smaller, faster, cheaper and lighter

TL;DR: This work proposes a method to pre-train a smaller general-purpose language representation model, called DistilBERT, which can be fine-tuned with good performances on a wide range of tasks like its larger counterparts, and introduces a triple loss combining language modeling, distillation and cosine-distance losses.
