TLDR
A unified neural network architecture and learning algorithm that can be applied to various natural language processing tasks including part-of-speech tagging, chunking, named entity recognition, and semantic role labeling is proposed.Abstract:
We propose a unified neural network architecture and learning algorithm that can be applied to various natural language processing tasks including part-of-speech tagging, chunking, named entity recognition, and semantic role labeling. This versatility is achieved by trying to avoid task-specific engineering and therefore disregarding a lot of prior knowledge. Instead of exploiting man-made input features carefully optimized for each task, our system learns internal representations on the basis of vast amounts of mostly unlabeled training data. This work is then used as a basis for building a freely available tagging system with good performance and minimal computational requirements.read more

Multitask learning for mental health conditions with limited social media data
TL;DR: The framework proposed significantly improves over all baselines and single-task models for predicting mental health conditions, with particularly significant gains for conditions with limited data, and establishes for the first time the potential of deep learning in the prediction of mental health from online user-generated text.

Cross-Lingual Transfer Learning for POS Tagging without Cross-Lingual Resources
TL;DR: Evaluating on POS datasets from 14 languages in the Universal Dependencies corpus, it is shown that the proposed transfer learning model improves the POS tagging performance of the target languages without exploiting any linguistic knowledge between the source language and the target language.

A general path-based representation for predicting program properties
TL;DR: In this article, a path-based representation for learning from programs is presented, which allows a learning model to leverage the structured nature of code rather than treating it as a flat sequence of tokens.

A tutorial on hidden Markov models and selected applications in speech recognition
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an overview of the basic theory of hidden Markov models (HMMs) as originated by L.E. Baum and T. Petrie (1966) and give practical details on methods of implementation of the theory along with a description of selected applications of HMMs to distinct problems in speech recognition.
