Secure computation of equivalence has fundamental application in many different areas, including healthcare. We study this problem in the context of matching an individual identity to link medical records across systems. We develop an…

In this paper we address the question of how to render sequence-level networks better at handling structured input. We propose a machine reading simulator which processes text incrementally from left to right and performs shallow reasoning…

In this paper, we theoretically and experimentally analyze sequential processors with limited communication between parts. We compare the expressivity of sequential quantum and classical processors under the same constraints. They consist…

The nature of intelligence in both humans and machines is a longstanding question. While there is no universally accepted definition, the ability to reason causally is often regarded as a pivotal aspect of intelligence (Lake et al., 2017).…
