End-to-end approaches to autonomous driving commonly rely on expert demonstrations. Although humans are good drivers, they are not good coaches for end-to-end algorithms that demand dense on-policy supervision. On the contrary, automated…
End-to-end speech summarization (E2E SSum) directly summarizes input speech into easy-to-read short sentences with a single model. This approach is promising because it, in contrast to the conventional cascade approach, can utilize full…
We define {\em semantic complexity} using a new concept of {\em meaning automata}. We measure the semantic complexity of understanding of prepositional phrases, of an "in depth understanding system", and of a natural language interface to…
