In most cases, bilingual TTS needs to handle three types of input scripts: first language only, second language only, and second language embedded in the first language. In the latter two situations, the pronunciation and intonation of the second language are usually quite different due to the influence of the first language. Therefore, it is a big challenge to accurately model the pronunciation and intonation of the second language in different contexts without mutual interference. This paper builds a Mandarin-English TTS system to acquire more standard spoken English speech from a monolingual Chinese speaker. We introduce phonology embedding to capture the English differences between different phonology. Embedding mask is applied to language embedding for distinguishing information between different languages and to phonology embedding for focusing on English expression. We specially design an embedding strength modulator to capture the dynamic strength of language and phonology. Experiments show that our approach can produce significantly more natural and standard spoken English speech of the monolingual Chinese speaker. From analysis, we find that suitable phonology control contributes to better performance in different scenarios.

Conflict prediction in communication is integral to the design of virtual agents that support successful teamwork by providing timely assistance. The aim of our research is to analyze discourse to predict collaboration success. Unfortunately, resource scarcity is a problem that teamwork researchers commonly face since it is hard to gather a large number of training examples. To alleviate this problem, this paper introduces a multi-feature embedding (MFeEmb) that improves the generalizability of conflict prediction models trained on dialogue sequences. MFeEmb leverages textual, structural, and semantic information from the dialogues by incorporating lexical, dialogue acts, and sentiment features. The use of dialogue acts and sentiment features reduces performance loss from natural distribution shifts caused mainly by changes in vocabulary. This paper demonstrates the performance of MFeEmb on domain adaptation problems in which the model is trained on discourse from one task domain and applied to predict team performance in a different domain. The generalizability of MFeEmb is quantified using the similarity measure proposed by Bontonou et al. (2021). Our results show that MFeEmb serves as an excellent domain-agnostic representation for meta-pretraining a few-shot model on collaborative multiparty dialogues.

With recent advances in image-to-image translation tasks, remarkable progress has been witnessed in generating face images from sketches. However, existing methods frequently fail to generate images with details that are semantically and geometrically consistent with the input sketch, especially when various decoration strokes are drawn. To address this issue, we introduce a novel W-W+ encoder architecture to take advantage of the high expressive power of W+ space and semantic controllability of W space. We introduce an explicit intermediate representation for sketch semantic embedding. With a semantic feature matching loss for effective semantic supervision, our sketch embedding precisely conveys the semantics in the input sketches to the synthesized images. Moreover, a novel sketch semantic interpretation approach is designed to automatically extract semantics from vectorized sketches. We conduct extensive experiments on both synthesized sketches and hand-drawn sketches, and the results demonstrate the superiority of our method over existing approaches on both semantics-preserving and generalization ability.

Developing automatic Math Word Problem (MWP) solvers is a challenging task that demands the ability of understanding and mathematical reasoning over the natural language. Recent neural-based approaches mainly encode the problem text using a language model and decode a mathematical expression over quantities and operators iteratively. Note the problem text of a MWP consists of a context part and a question part, a recent work finds these neural solvers may only perform shallow pattern matching between the context text and the golden expression, where question text is not well used. Meanwhile, existing decoding processes fail to enforce the mathematical laws into the design, where the representations for mathematical equivalent expressions are different. To address these two issues, we propose a new encoder-decoder architecture that fully leverages the question text and preserves step-wise commutative law. Besides generating quantity embeddings, our encoder further encodes the question text and uses it to guide the decoding process. At each step, our decoder uses Deep Sets to compute expression representations so that these embeddings are invariant under any permutation of quantities. Experiments on four established benchmarks demonstrate that our framework outperforms state-of-the-art neural MWP solvers, showing the effectiveness of our techniques. We also conduct a detailed analysis of the results to show the limitations of our approach and further discuss the potential future work.

Dynamic neural network is an emerging research topic in deep learning. Compared to static models which have fixed computational graphs and parameters at the inference stage, dynamic networks can adapt their structures or parameters to different inputs, leading to notable advantages in terms of accuracy, computational efficiency, adaptiveness, etc. In this survey, we comprehensively review this rapidly developing area by dividing dynamic networks into three main categories: 1) instance-wise dynamic models that process each instance with data-dependent architectures or parameters; 2) spatial-wise dynamic networks that conduct adaptive computation with respect to different spatial locations of image data and 3) temporal-wise dynamic models that perform adaptive inference along the temporal dimension for sequential data such as videos and texts. The important research problems of dynamic networks, e.g., architecture design, decision making scheme, optimization technique and applications, are reviewed systematically. Finally, we discuss the open problems in this field together with interesting future research directions.

Attention Model has now become an important concept in neural networks that has been researched within diverse application domains. This survey provides a structured and comprehensive overview of the developments in modeling attention. In particular, we propose a taxonomy which groups existing techniques into coherent categories. We review salient neural architectures in which attention has been incorporated, and discuss applications in which modeling attention has shown a significant impact. Finally, we also describe how attention has been used to improve the interpretability of neural networks. We hope this survey will provide a succinct introduction to attention models and guide practitioners while developing approaches for their applications.

In multi-turn dialog, utterances do not always take the full form of sentences \cite{Carbonell1983DiscoursePA}, which naturally makes understanding the dialog context more difficult. However, it is essential to fully grasp the dialog context to generate a reasonable response. Hence, in this paper, we propose to improve the response generation performance by examining the model's ability to answer a reading comprehension question, where the question is focused on the omitted information in the dialog. Enlightened by the multi-task learning scheme, we propose a joint framework that unifies these two tasks, sharing the same encoder to extract the common and task-invariant features with different decoders to learn task-specific features. To better fusing information from the question and the dialog history in the encoding part, we propose to augment the Transformer architecture with a memory updater, which is designed to selectively store and update the history dialog information so as to support downstream tasks. For the experiment, we employ human annotators to write and examine a large-scale dialog reading comprehension dataset. Extensive experiments are conducted on this dataset, and the results show that the proposed model brings substantial improvements over several strong baselines on both tasks. In this way, we demonstrate that reasoning can indeed help better response generation and vice versa. We release our large-scale dataset for further research.

Knowledge graph (KG) embedding encodes the entities and relations from a KG into low-dimensional vector spaces to support various applications such as KG completion, question answering, and recommender systems. In real world, knowledge graphs (KGs) are dynamic and evolve over time with addition or deletion of triples. However, most existing models focus on embedding static KGs while neglecting dynamics. To adapt to the changes in a KG, these models need to be re-trained on the whole KG with a high time cost. In this paper, to tackle the aforementioned problem, we propose a new context-aware Dynamic Knowledge Graph Embedding (DKGE) method which supports the embedding learning in an online fashion. DKGE introduces two different representations (i.e., knowledge embedding and contextual element embedding) for each entity and each relation, in the joint modeling of entities and relations as well as their contexts, by employing two attentive graph convolutional networks, a gate strategy, and translation operations. This effectively helps limit the impacts of a KG update in certain regions, not in the entire graph, so that DKGE can rapidly acquire the updated KG embedding by a proposed online learning algorithm. Furthermore, DKGE can also learn KG embedding from scratch. Experiments on the tasks of link prediction and question answering in a dynamic environment demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of DKGE.

Generating texts which express complex ideas spanning multiple sentences requires a structured representation of their content (document plan), but these representations are prohibitively expensive to manually produce. In this work, we address the problem of generating coherent multi-sentence texts from the output of an information extraction system, and in particular a knowledge graph. Graphical knowledge representations are ubiquitous in computing, but pose a significant challenge for text generation techniques due to their non-hierarchical nature, collapsing of long-distance dependencies, and structural variety. We introduce a novel graph transforming encoder which can leverage the relational structure of such knowledge graphs without imposing linearization or hierarchical constraints. Incorporated into an encoder-decoder setup, we provide an end-to-end trainable system for graph-to-text generation that we apply to the domain of scientific text. Automatic and human evaluations show that our technique produces more informative texts which exhibit better document structure than competitive encoder-decoder methods.

We examine the problem of question answering over knowledge graphs, focusing on simple questions that can be answered by the lookup of a single fact. Adopting a straightforward decomposition of the problem into entity detection, entity linking, relation prediction, and evidence combination, we explore simple yet strong baselines. On the popular SimpleQuestions dataset, we find that basic LSTMs and GRUs plus a few heuristics yield accuracies that approach the state of the art, and techniques that do not use neural networks also perform reasonably well. These results show that gains from sophisticated deep learning techniques proposed in the literature are quite modest and that some previous models exhibit unnecessary complexity.

Multi-view networks are ubiquitous in real-world applications. In order to extract knowledge or business value, it is of interest to transform such networks into representations that are easily machine-actionable. Meanwhile, network embedding has emerged as an effective approach to generate distributed network representations. Therefore, we are motivated to study the problem of multi-view network embedding, with a focus on the characteristics that are specific and important in embedding this type of networks. In our practice of embedding real-world multi-view networks, we identify two such characteristics, which we refer to as preservation and collaboration. We then explore the feasibility of achieving better embedding quality by simultaneously modeling preservation and collaboration, and propose the mvn2vec algorithms. With experiments on a series of synthetic datasets, an internal Snapchat dataset, and two public datasets, we further confirm the presence and importance of preservation and collaboration. These experiments also demonstrate that better embedding can be obtained by simultaneously modeling the two characteristics, while not over-complicating the model or requiring additional supervision.
