Exact Hard Monotonic Attention for Character-Level Transduction (P19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Neural sequence-to-sequence models with soft attention outperform monotonic models . current dominant method is the neural sequenceto-Sequency model with soft focus . |
| Approach: | They develop a hard attention sequence-to-sequence model that enforces strict monotonicity and learns alignment jointly. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model achieves state-of-the-art on grapheme-to-phoneme conversion and morphological inflection generation. |

Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | morphological inflection generation and historical text normalization tasks are character-level tasks that outperform recurrent models. |
| Approach: | They propose a technique to handle feature-guided character-level transduction that further improves performance. |
| Outcome: | The transformer outperforms recurrent models on morphological inflection and historical text normalization tasks. |
