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

End-to-End Human Pose and Mesh Reconstruction with Transformers
TL;DR: A new method to reconstruct 3D human pose and mesh vertices from a single image using a transformer encoder to jointly model vertex-vertex and vertex-joint interactions, which generates new state-of-the-art results for human mesh reconstruction on the public Human3.6M and 3DPW datasets.

Incorporating BERT into Neural Machine Translation
TL;DR: A new algorithm named BERT-fused model is proposed, in which BERT is first used to extract representations for an input sequence, and then the representations are fused with each layer of the encoder and decoder of the NMT model through attention mechanisms.

Efficient Content-Based Sparse Attention with Routing Transformers
TL;DR: This work proposes to learn dynamic sparse attention patterns that avoid allocating computation and memory to attend to content unrelated to the query of interest, and shows that this model outperforms comparable sparse attention models on language modeling on Wikitext-103, as well as on image generation on ImageNet-64 while using fewer self-attention layers.

Distributionally Robust Neural Networks
TL;DR: The results suggest that regularization is critical for worst-group performance in the overparameterized regime, even if it is not needed for average performance, and introduce and provide convergence guarantees for a stochastic optimizer for this group DRO setting.

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).
