Other
- ProjectionNet: Learning Efficient On-Device Deep Networks Using Neural Projections - Replace word embeddings by word projections in your deep neural networks, which doesn't require a pre-extracted dictionnary nor storing embedding matrices.
- Self-Governing Neural Networks for On-Device Short Text Classification - This paper is the sequel to the ProjectionNet just above. The SGNN is elaborated on the ProjectionNet, and the optimizations are detailed more in-depth (also see my [attempt to reproduce the paper in code](https://github.com/guillaume-chevalier/SGNN-Self-Governing-Neural-Networks-Projection-Layer) and watch [the talks' recording](https://vimeo.com/305197775)).
- Matching Networks for One Shot Learning - Classify a new example from a list of other examples (without definitive categories) and with low-data per classification task, but lots of data for lots of similar classification tasks - it seems better than siamese networks. To sum up: with Matching Networks, you can optimize directly for a cosine similarity between examples (like a self-attention product would match) which is passed to the softmax directly. I guess that Matching Networks could probably be used as with negative-sampling softmax training in word2vec's CBOW or Skip-gram without having to do any context embedding lookups.
