Welcome to my blog. I intend to write about interesting things related to machine learning, artificial neural networks, and natural language processing.

EMNLP 2017

There were sun in Copenhagen. One of the days. The rest of the conference, it poured.

The EMNLP conference took place in Copenhagen in September 2017. In this blog post I share some observations that I made during the conference. These included subword-level models, multilingual NLP, language grounding, and inspiration from children.

Trends in Neural Machine Translation

History of machine translation systems. Slide by Christopher D. Manning.

This blog post was inspired by the tutorial on neural machine translation on ACL 2016 in Berlin by Christopher Manning, Minh-Thang Luong, and Kyunghyun Cho. It intends to shed light on some of the recent research activities related to neural machine translation, and give some pointers on where to read more.
