1. Deep Learning
- A branch of machine learning 机器学习的一个分支
- Re-branded name for neural networks 神经网络的改名
- Why deep? Many layers are chained together in modern deep learning models 为什么是深度？在现代深度学习模型中，许多层都是连在一起的。
- Neural networks: historically inspired by the way computation works in the brain 神经网络：历史上受到大脑中计算方式的启发
- Consists of computation units called neurons 由称为神经元的计算单元组成
1.2 Feed-forward NN
- Aka multilayer perceptrons 又名多层感知器
- Each arrow carries a weight, reflecting its importance 每个箭头都有一个权重，反映其重要性
- Certain layers have nonlinear activation functions 某些层有非线性激活函数
1.3 Neuron
Each neuron is a function 每个神经元都是一个函数
- given input x, computes real-value (scalar) h 给定输入x，计算实值（标量）
- scales input (with weights, w) and adds offset (bias, b)
- applies non-linear function:
- logistic sigmoid
- hyperbolic sigmoid (tanh)
- rectified linear unit
- w and b are parameters of the model
1.4 Matrix Vector Notation 矩阵向量表示法
- Typically have several hidden units, i.e.
- Each with its own weights (
) and bias term (
)
- Can be expressed using matrix and vector operators 可以用矩阵和向量运算符表示
- Where 
a matrix comprisine the weight vectors, and 
is a vector of all bias terms
- Non-linear function applied element-wise 非线性函数的单元应用
1.5 Output Layer
- Binary classification problem, e.g. classify whether a tweet is + or - in sentiment
- sigmoid activation function
- Multi-class classification problem, e.g. native language identification
- softmax ensures probabilities > 0 and sum to 1
1.6 Learning from Data
- How to learn the parameters from data?
- Consider how well the model "fits" the training data, in terms of the probability it assigns to the correct output
- want to maximise total probability, L 想要使总概率最大化，L
- equivalently minimise -log L with respect to parameters 等效地使-log L 相对于参数最小化
- Trained using gradient descent 用梯度下降法训练的
- tools like tensorflow, pytorch, dynet use autodiff to compute gradients automatically
1.7 Regularisation 正则化
- Have many parameters, overfits easily 有很多参数，很容易过拟合
- Low bias, high variance 过拟合的体现就是偏差小，方差大
- Regularisation is very very important in NNs 正规化在NNs中非常重要
- L1-norm: sum of absolute values of all parameters (W, b, etc) 所有参数(W、 b 等)的绝对值之和
- L2-norm: sum of squares 平方和
- Dropout: randomly zero-out some neurons of a layer 随机地使一层中的某些神经元中断
1.8 Dropout
- If dropout rate = 0.1, a random 10% of neurons now have 0 values 如果辍学率 = 0.1，那么随机抽取的10% 的神经元现在的值为0
- Can apply dropout to any layer, but in practice, mostly to the hidden layers 可以应用到任何图层，但在实践中，大多数是隐藏的图层
2. Applications in NLP
2.1 Topic Classification
Given a document, classify it into a predefined set of topics (e.g. economy, politics, sports) 给定一个文档，将其分类为一组预定义的主题(如经济、政治、体育)
Input: bag-of-words
2.2 Topic Classification - Training
2.3 Topic Classification - Prediction
2.4 Topic Classification - Improvements
- + Bag of bigrams as input
- Preprocess text to lemmatise words and remove stopwords 对文本进行预处理，使单词词干化，并删除stopwords
- Instead of raw counts, we can weight words using TF-IDF or indicators (0 or 1 depending on presence of words) 我们可以使用 TF-IDF 或指示器（0或1取决于单词的存在）来为单词加权，而不是原始计数
2.5 Language Model Revisited
- Assign a probability to a sequence of words 给一系列单词赋予一个概率
- Framed as "sliding a window" over the sentence, predicting each word from finite context 在句子上方设置“滑动窗口”，从有限的上下文中预测每个单词
E.g., n=3, a trigram model 例如，n = 3，一个三元模型
- Training involves collecting frequency counts 训练包括收集频率计数
- Difficulty with rare events 一 smoothing 平滑
2.6 Language Models as Classifiers
- LMs can be considered simple classifiers, e.g. for a trigram model LM 可以被认为是简单的分类器，例如对于一个三元模型:
- classifies the likely next word in a sequence, given “salt” and “and” 根据“ salt”和“ and”将可能的下一个单词按顺序分类
2.6 Feed-forward NN Language Model
- Use neural network as a classifier to model 使用神经网络作为分类器进行建模
- Input features = the previous two words 输入特征 = 前两个单词
- Output class = the next word 输出类 = 下一个单词
- How to represent words? Embeddings 如何表示单词? Embeddings
2.7 Word Embeddings
- Maps discrete word symbols to continuous vectors in a relatively low dimensional space 在一个相对低维的空间中将离散的单词符号映射到连续的向量
- Word embeddings allow the model to capture similarity between words 词语嵌入允许模型捕获词语之间的相似性
- dog vs. cat
- walking vs. running
2.8 Topic Classification
2.9 Training a FFNN LM
2.10 Input and Output Word Embeddings
2.11 Language Model: Architecture
2.12 Advantages of FFNN LM
- Count-based N-gram models (lecture 3) 基于计数的 N-gram 模型
- cheap to train (just collect counts)
- problems with sparsity and scaling to larger contexts
- don't adequately capture properties of words (grammatical and semantic similarity ), e.g., film vs movie 不能充分捕捉单词的属性(语法和语义相似性)
- FFNN N-gram models
- automatically capture word properties, leading to more robust estimates
3. Convolutional Networks
- Commonly used in computer vision 常用于计算机视觉
- Identify indicative local predictors 识别指示性局部预测因子
- Combine them to produce a fixed-size representation 将它们组合起来生成一个固定大小的表示
