TLDR
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.Abstract:
We introduce a new language representation model called BERT, which stands for Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers. Unlike recent language representation models (Peters et al., 2018a; Radford et al., 2018), BERT is designed to pre-train deep bidirectional representations from unlabeled text by jointly conditioning on both left and right context in all layers. As a result, the pre-trained BERT model can be fine-tuned with just one additional output layer to create state-of-the-art models for a wide range of tasks, such as question answering and language inference, without substantial task-specific architecture modifications. BERT is conceptually simple and empirically powerful. It obtains new state-of-the-art results on eleven natural language processing tasks, including pushing the GLUE score to 80.5 (7.7 point absolute improvement), MultiNLI accuracy to 86.7% (4.6% absolute improvement), SQuAD v1.1 question answering Test F1 to 93.2 (1.5 point absolute improvement) and SQuAD v2.0 Test F1 to 83.1 (5.1 point absolute improvement).read more

How Neural Networks Extrapolate: From Feedforward to Graph Neural Networks.
TL;DR: The success of GNNs in extrapolating algorithmic tasks to new data relies on encoding task-specific non-linearities in the architecture or features, and a hypothesis is suggested for which theoretical and empirical evidence is provided.

TL;DR: The authors proposes a selectively overwriting mechanism for more efficient DST by decomposing DST into two sub-tasks and guiding the decoder to focus only on one of the tasks.

MiniLM: Deep Self-Attention Distillation for Task-Agnostic Compression of Pre-Trained Transformers
TL;DR: This work presents a simple and effective approach to compress large Transformer (Vaswani et al., 2017) based pre-trained models, termed as deep self-attention distillation, and demonstrates that the monolingual model outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in different parameter size of student models.

TL;DR: This paper introduced a new type of deep contextualized word representation that models both complex characteristics of word use (e.g., syntax and semantics), and how these uses vary across linguistic contexts (i.e., to model polysemy).
