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

Point 4D Transformer Networks for Spatio-Temporal Modeling in Point Cloud Videos
TL;DR: Point 4D Transformer (P4Transformer) as discussed by the authors is a point 4D convolutional neural network that embeds the spatio-temporal local structures presented in a point cloud video and performs self-attention on the embedded local features.

Generation-Augmented Retrieval for Open-domain Question Answering
TL;DR: It is shown that generating diverse contexts for a query is beneficial as fusing their results consistently yields better retrieval accuracy, and as sparse and dense representations are often complementary, GAR can be easily combined with DPR to achieve even better performance.

Multi-Source Cross-Lingual Model Transfer: Learning What to Share
TL;DR: This model leverages adversarial networks to learn language-invariant features, and mixture-of-experts models to dynamically exploit the similarity between the target language and each individual source language to further boost target language performance.

Deep contextualized word representations

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).
