Stance, Alignment, and Affiliation During Storytelling: When Nodding Is a Token of Affiliation
TL;DR: The authors examine the communication resources participants to tellings rely on to manage displays of alignment and affiliation during the telling and find that the concepts of structural alignment and social affiliation are separate interactional issues and are managed by different response tokens in mid-telling.

Assessing the Ability of LSTMs to Learn Syntax-Sensitive Dependencies
TL;DR: It is concluded that LSTMs can capture a non-trivial amount of grammatical structure given targeted supervision, but stronger architectures may be required to further reduce errors; furthermore, the language modeling signal is insufficient for capturing syntax-sensitive dependencies, and should be supplemented with more direct supervision if such dependencies need to be captured.
