1610.10099 | 34 | Table 5 contains some of the unaltered generated transla- tions from the ByteNet that highlight reordering and other phenomena such as transliteration. The character-level aspect of the model makes post-processing unnecessary in principle. We further visualize the sensitivity of the ByteNetâs predictions to speciï¬c source and target inputs using gradient-based visualization (Simonyan et al., 2013). Figure 6 represents a heatmap of the magnitude of the gra- dients of the generated outputs with respect to the source and target inputs. For visual clarity, we sum the gradients for all the characters that make up each word and normal- ize the values along each column. In contrast with the at- tentional pooling mechanism (Bahdanau et al., 2014), this general technique allows us to inspect not just dependen- cies of the outputs on the source inputs, but also dependen- cies of the outputs on previous target inputs, or on any other neural network layers.

# A LEARNED REPRESENTATION FOR ARTISTIC STYLE
Vincent Dumoulin & Jonathon Shlens & Manjunath Kudlur Google Brain, Mountain View, CA [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]
# ABSTRACT
The diversity of painting styles represents a rich visual vocabulary for the con- struction of an image. The degree to which one may learn and parsimoniously capture this visual vocabulary measures our understanding of the higher level fea- tures of paintings, if not images in general. In this work we investigate the con- struction of a single, scalable deep network that can parsimoniously capture the artistic style of a diversity of paintings. We demonstrate that such a network gen- eralizes across a diversity of artistic styles by reducing a painting to a point in an embedding space. Importantly, this model permits a user to explore new paint- ing styles by arbitrarily combining the styles learned from individual paintings. We hope that this work provides a useful step towards building rich models of paintings and offers a window on to the structure of the learned representation of artistic style.

Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in sev- eral language pairs. However, it remains a challenging problem how to integrate NMT with a bilingual dictionary which mainly contains words rarely or never seen in the bilingual training data. In this pa- per, we propose two methods to bridge NMT and the bilingual dictionaries. The core idea behind is to design novel models that transform the bilingual dictionaries into adequate sentence pairs, so that NMT can distil latent bilingual mappings from the ample and repetitive phenomena. One method leverages a mixed word/character model and the other attempts at synthesiz- ing parallel sentences guaranteeing mas- sive occurrence of the translation lexi- con. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed methods can remarkably improve the translation quality, and most of the rare words in the test sentences can obtain correct translations if they are cov- ered by the dictionary.
Typically, NMT adopts the encoder-decoder ar- chitecture which consists of two recurrent neural networks. The encoder network models the se- mantics of the source sentence and transforms the source sentence into the context vector represen- tation, from which the decoder network generates the target translation word by word. | 1610.07272#1 | Bridging Neural Machine Translation and Bilingual Dictionaries | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in

1610.07629 | 1 | # INTRODUCTION
A pastiche is an artistic work that imitates the style of another one. Computer vision and more recently machine learning have a history of trying to automate pastiche, that is, render an image in the style of another one. This task is called style transfer, and is closely related to the texture synthesis task. While the latter tries to capture the statistical relationship between the pixels of a source image which is assumed to have a stationary distribution at some scale, the former does so while also attempting to preserve some notion of content. | 1610.07629#1 | A Learned Representation For Artistic Style | The diversity of painting styles represents a rich visual vocabulary for the
construction of an image. The degree to which one may learn and parsimoniously
capture this visual vocabulary measures our understanding of the higher level
features of paintings, if not images in general. In this work we investigate
the construction of a single, scalable deep network that can parsimoniously
capture the artistic style of a diversity of paintings. We demonstrate that
such a network generalizes across a diversity of artistic styles by reducing a
painting to a point in an embedding space. Importantly, this model permits a
user to explore new painting styles by arbitrarily combining the styles learned
from individual paintings. We hope that this work provides a useful step
towards building rich models of paintings and offers a window on to the
structure of the learned representation of artistic style. | http://arxiv.org/pdf/1610.07629 | Vincent Dumoulin, Jonathon Shlens, Manjunath Kudlur | cs.CV, cs.LG | 9 pages. 15 pages of Appendix, International Conference on Learning

1610.07272 | 2 | One important feature of NMT is that each word in the vocabulary is mapped into a low- dimensional (word embed- ding). The use of continuous representations en- ables NMT to learn latent bilingual mappings for accurate translation and explore the statistical sim- ilarity between words (e.g. desk and table) as well. As a disadvantage of the statistical models, NMT can learn good word embeddings and accurate bilingual mappings only when the words occur frequently in the parallel sentence pairs. However, low-frequency words are ubiquitous, especially when the training data is not enough (e.g. low- resource language pairs). Fortunately, in many language pairs and domains, we have handmade bilingual dictionaries which mainly contain words rarely or never seen in the training corpus. There- fore, it remains a big challenge how to bridge NMT and the bilingual dictionaries.

# 1 Introduction
Due to its superior ability in modelling the end-to-end translation process, neural machine translation (NMT), recently proposed by (Kalch- brenner and Blunsom, 2013; Cho et al., 2014; Sutskever et al., 2014), has become the novel paradigm and achieved the new state-of-the-art translation performance for several language pairs, such as English-to-French, English-to-German and Chinese-to-English (Sutskever et al., 2014; Bahdanau et al., 2014; Luong et al., 2015b; Sen- nrich et al., 2015b; Wu et al., 2016).
Recently, Arthur et al. (2016) attempt at incor- porating discrete translation lexicons into NMT. The main idea of their method is leveraging the discrete translation lexicons to positively inï¬uence the probability distribution of the output words in the NMT softmax layer. However, their approach only addresses the translation lexicons which are in the restricted vocabulary 1 of NMT. The out-of- vocabulary (OOV) words are out of their consid- eration.
1NMT usually keeps only the words whose occurrence is more than a threshold (e.g. 10), since very rare words can not yield good embeddings and large vocabulary leads to high computational complexity. | 1610.07272#3 | Bridging Neural Machine Translation and Bilingual Dictionaries | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in

1610.07629 | 3 | On the machine learning side, it has been shown that a trained classiï¬er can be used as a feature extractor to drive texture synthesis and style transfer. Gatys et al. (2015a) uses the VGG-19 network (Simonyan & Zisserman, 2014) to extract features from a texture image and a synthesized texture. The two sets of features are compared and the synthesized texture is modiï¬ed by gradient descent so that the two sets of features are as close as possible. Gatys et al. (2015b) extends this idea to style transfer by adding the constraint that the synthesized image also be close to a content image with respect to another set of features extracted by the trained VGG-19 classiï¬er.
While very ï¬exible, this algorithm is expensive to run due to the optimization loop being carried. Ulyanov et al. (2016a), Li & Wand (2016) and Johnson et al. (2016) tackle this problem by intro- ducing a feedforward style transfer network, which is trained to go from content to pastiche image in one pass. However, in doing so some of the ï¬exibility of the original algorithm is lost: the style transfer network is tied to a single style, which means that separate networks have to be trained

In this paper, we aim at making full use of all the bilingual dictionaries, especially the ones covering the rare or OOV words. Our basic idea is to trans- form the low-frequency word pair in bilingual dic- tionaries into adequate sequence pairs which guar- antee the frequent occurrence of the word pair, so that NMT can learn translation mappings between the source word and the target word. | 1610.07272#4 | Bridging Neural Machine Translation and Bilingual Dictionaries | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in

1610.07272 | 5 | To achieve this goal, we propose two methods, as shown in Fig. 1. In the test sentence, the Chi- nese word lËihu¯a appears only once in our train- ing data and the baseline NMT cannot correctly translate this word. Fortunately, our bilingual dic- tionary contains this translation lexicon. Our ï¬rst method extends the mixed word/character model proposed by Wu et al. (2016) to re-label the rare words in both of the dictionary and training data with character sequences in which characters are now frequent and the character translation map- pings can be learnt by NMT. Instead of backing off words into characters, our second method is well designed to synthesize adequate pseudo sentence pairs containing the translation lexicon, allowing NMT to learn the word translation mappings.
We make the following contributions in this pa- per:
⢠We propose a low-frequency to high- frequency framework to bridge NMT and the bilingual dictionaries.
⢠We propose and investigate two methods to utilize the bilingual dictionaries. One extends the mixed word/character model and the other designs a pseudo sentence pair syn- thesis model. | 1610.07272#5 | Bridging Neural Machine Translation and Bilingual Dictionaries | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in

for every style being modeled. Subsequent work has brought some performance improvements to style transfer networks, e.g. with respect to color preservation (Gatys et al., 2016a) or style transfer quality (Ulyanov et al., 2016b), but to our knowledge the problem of the single-purpose nature of style transfer networks remains untackled.
We think this is an important problem that, if solved, would have both scientiï¬c and practical im- portance. First, style transfer has already found use in mobile applications, for which on-device processing is contingent upon the models having a reasonable memory footprint. More broadly, building a separate network for each style ignores the fact that individual paintings share many com- mon visual elements and a true model that captures artistic style would be able to exploit and learn from such regularities. Furthermore, the degree to which an artistic styling model might general- ize across painting styles would directly measure our ability to build systems that parsimoniously capture the higher level features and statistics of photographs and images (Simoncelli & Olshausen, 2001). | 1610.07629#5 | A Learned Representation For Artistic Style | The diversity of painting styles represents a rich visual vocabulary for the

Our framework bridging NMT and the discrete bilingual dictionaries can be applied in any neural machine translation model. Without loss of gen- erality, we use the attention-based NMT proposed by (Luong et al., 2015b), which utilizes stacked Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM, (Hochreiter and Schmidhuber, 1997)) layers for both encoder and decoder as illustrated in Fig. 2. | 1610.07272#6 | Bridging Neural Machine Translation and Bilingual Dictionaries | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in

1610.07629 | 6 | In this work, we show that a simple modiï¬cation of the style transfer network, namely the in- troduction of conditional instance normalization, allows it to learn multiple styles (Figure 1a).We demonstrate that this approach is ï¬exible yet comparable to single-purpose style transfer networks, both qualitatively and in terms of convergence properties. This model reduces each style image into a point in an embedding space. Furthermore, this model provides a generic representation for artistic styles that seems ï¬exible enough to capture new artistic styles much faster than a single-purpose net2

Style transfer can be deï¬ned as ï¬nding a pastiche image p whose content is similar to that of a content image c but whose style is similar to that of a style image s. This objective is by nature vaguely deï¬ned, because similarity in content and style are themselves vaguely deï¬ned.
The neural algorithm of artistic style proposes the following deï¬nitions:
⢠Two images are similar in content if their high-level features as extracted by a trained classiï¬er are close in Euclidian distance.
⢠Two images are similar in style if their low-level features as extracted by a trained classiï¬er share the same statistics or, more concretely, if the difference between the featuresâ Gram matrices has a small Frobenius norm. | 1610.07629#7 | A Learned Representation For Artistic Style | The diversity of painting styles represents a rich visual vocabulary for the

(2016) for style transfer features). The second point is motivated by the observation that the artistic style of a painting may be interpreted as a visual texture (Gatys et al., 2015a). A visual texture is conjectured to be spatially homogenous and consist of repeated structural motifs whose minimal sufï¬cient statistics are captured by lower order statistical measurements (Julesz, 1962; Portilla & Simoncelli, 1999).
In its original formulation, the neural algorithm of artistic style proceeds as follows: starting from some initialization of p (e.g. c, or some random initialization), the algorithm adapts p to minimize the loss function
L(s, c, p) = λsLs(p) + λcLc(p), (1) where Ls(p) is the style loss, Lc(p) is the content loss and λs, λc are scaling hyperparameters.

# Incorporating Bilingual Dictionaries
The word translation pairs in bilingual dictionar- ies are difï¬cult to use in neural machine transla- tion, mainly because they are rarely or never seen in the parallel training corpus. We attempt to build a bridge between NMT and bilingual dictionaries. We believe the bridge is data transformation that can transform rarely or unseen word translation pairs into frequent ones and provide NMT ade- quate information to learn latent translation map- pings. In this work, we propose two methods to perform data transformation from character level and word level respectively.
# 3.1 Mixed Word/Character Model
= dictionary Dic Given {(Dic(i) i=1, we focus on the trans- lation lexicons (Dicx, Dicy) if Dicx is a rare or unknown word in the bilingual corpus Db.
We ï¬rst introduce data transformation using the character-based method. We all know that words
are composed of characters and most of the char- acters are frequent even though the word is never seen. This idea is popularly used to deploy open vocabulary NMT (Ling et al., 2015; Costa-Juss`a and Fonollosa, 2016; Chung et al., 2016). | 1610.07272#10 | Bridging Neural Machine Translation and Bilingual Dictionaries | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in

While feedforward style transfer networks solve the problem of speed at test-time, they also suffer from the fact that the network T is tied to one speciï¬c painting style. This means that a separate network T has to be trained for every style to be imitated. The real-world impact of this limitation is that it becomes prohibitive to implement a style transfer application on a memory-limited device, such as a smartphone.
# 2.1 N-STYLES FEEDFORWARD STYLE TRANSFER NETWORKS
Our work stems from the intuition that many styles probably share some degree of computation, and that this sharing is thrown away by training N networks from scratch when building an N - styles style transfer system. For instance, many impressionist paintings share similar paint strokes but differ in the color palette being used. In that case, it seems very wasteful to treat a set of N impressionist paintings as completely separate styles. | 1610.07629#10 | A Learned Representation For Artistic Style | The diversity of painting styles represents a rich visual vocabulary for the

1610.07272 | 11 | Character translation mappings are much eas- ier to learn for NMT than word translation map- pings. However, given a character sequence of a source language word, NMT cannot guarantee the generated character sequence would lead to a valid target language word. Therefore, we prefer the framework mixing the words and characters, which is employed by Wu et al. (2016) to handle OOV words. If it is a frequent word, we keep it un- changed. Otherwise, we fall back to the character sequence.
We perform data transformation on both parallel training corpus and bilingual dictionaries. Here, English sentences and words are adopted as ex- amples. Suppose we keep the English vocabulary V in which the frequency of each word exceeds a threshold K. For each English word w (e.g. oak) in a parallel sentence pair (Xb, Yb) or in a trans- lation lexicon (Dicx, Dicy), if w â V , w will be left as it is. Otherwise, w is re-labelled by charac- ter sequence. For example, oak will be:
oak + (B)o (M)a (E)k (9)
Where (B), (/) and (£) denotes respectively begin, middle and end of a word.

1610.07629 | 11 | To take this into account, we propose to train a single conditional style transfer network T (c, s) for N styles. The conditional network is given both a content image and the identity of the style to apply and produces a pastiche corresponding to that style. While the idea is straightforward on paper, there remains the open question of how conditioning should be done. In exploring this question, we found a very surprising fact about the role of normalization in style transfer networks: to model a style, it is sufï¬cient to specialize scaling and shifting parameters after normalization to each speciï¬c style. In other words, all convolutional weights of a style transfer network can be shared across many styles, and it is sufï¬cient to tune parameters for an afï¬ne transformation after normalization for each style.
We call this approach conditional instance normalization. The goal of the procedure is transform a layerâs activations x into a normalized activation z speciï¬c to painting style s. Building off the instance normalization technique proposed in Ulyanov et al. (2016b), we augment the γ and β parameters so that theyâre N à C matrices, where N is the number of styles being modeled and C is the number of output feature maps. Conditioning on a style is achieved as follows:

# 3.2 Pseudo Sentence Pair Synthesis Model
Since NMT is a data driven approach, it can learn latent translation mappings for a word pair (Dicx, Dicy) if these exist many parallel sen- tences containing (Dicx, Dicy). Along this line, we propose the pseudo sentence pair synthesis In this model, we aim at synthesiz- model. ing for a rare or unknown translation lexicon (Dicx, Dicy) the adequate pseudo parallel sen- tences {(X j j=1 each of which contains (Dicx, Dicy).
Although there are no enough bilingual sen- tence pairs in many languages (and many do- mains), a huge amount of the monolingual data is available in the web. In this paper, we plan to make use of the source-side monolingual data Dsm = {(x im) M_|(M > N)to synthesize the pseudo bilingual sentence pairs Dy, = {(Xp, ¥p)} 7.1.

where µ and Ï are xâs mean and standard deviation taken across spatial axes and γs and βs are obtained by selecting the row corresponding to s in the γ and β matrices (Figure 3). One added beneï¬t of this approach is that one can stylize a single image into N painting styles with a single feed forward pass of the network with a batch size of N . In constrast, a single-style network requires N feed forward passes to perform N style transfers (Johnson et al., 2016; Li & Wand, 2016; Ulyanov et al., 2016a).
Because conditional instance normalization only acts on the scaling and shifting parameters, training a style transfer network on N styles requires fewer parameters than the naive approach of training N separate networks. In a typical network setup, the model consists of roughly 1.6M parameters, only around 3K (or 0.2%) of which specify individual artistic styles. In fact, because the size of γ and β grows linearly with respect to the number of feature maps in the network, this approach requires O(N à L) parameters, where L is the total number of feature maps in the network. | 1610.07629#12 | A Learned Representation For Artistic Style | The diversity of painting styles represents a rich visual vocabulary for the

# 3 EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS
3.1 METHODOLOGY
Unless noted otherwise, all style transfer networks were trained using the hyperparameters outlined in the Appendixâs Table 1.
We used the same network architecture as in Johnson et al. (2016), except for two key details: zero-padding is replaced with mirror-padding, and transposed convolutions (also sometimes called deconvolutions) are replaced with nearest-neighbor upsampling followed by a convolution. The use of mirror-padding avoids border patterns sometimes caused by zero-padding in SAME-padded convolutions, while the replacement for transposed convolutions avoids checkerboard patterning, as discussed in in Odena et al. (2016). We ï¬nd that with these two improvements training the network no longer requires a total variation loss that was previously employed to remove high frequency noise as proposed in Johnson et al. (2016). | 1610.07629#13 | A Learned Representation For Artistic Style | The diversity of painting styles represents a rich visual vocabulary for the

In contrast to NMT, statistical machine translation (SMT, e.g. phrase-based SMT (Koehn et al., 2007; Xiong et al., 2006)) is easy to integrate bilingual dictio- naries (Wu et al., 2008) as long as we consider the translation lexicons of bilingual dictionaries as phrasal translation rules.

1610.07629 | 14 | Our training procedure follows Johnson et al. (2016). Brieï¬y, we employ the ImageNet dataset (Deng et al., 2009) as a corpus of training content images. We train the N -style network with stochastic gradient descent using the Adam optimizer (Kingma & Ba, 2014). Details of the model architecture are in the Appendix. A complete implementation of the model in TensorFlow (Abadi et al., 2016) as well as a pretrained model are available for download 1. The evaluation images used for this work were resized such that their smaller side has size 512. Their stylized versions were then center-cropped to 512x512 pixels for display.
3.2 TRAINING A SINGLE NETWORK ON N STYLES PRODUCES STYLIZATIONS COMPARABLE TO INDEPENDENTLY-TRAINED MODELS
As a ï¬rst test, we trained a 10-styles model on stylistically similar images, namely 10 impressionist paintings from Claude Monet. Figure 4 shows the result of applying the trained network on evalu- ation images for a subset of the styles, with the full results being displayed in the Appendix. The model captures different color palettes and textures. We emphasize that 99.8% of the parameters are shared across all styles in contrast to 0.2% of the parameters which are unique to each painting style. | 1610.07629#14 | A Learned Representation For Artistic Style | The diversity of painting styles represents a rich visual vocabulary for the

1610.07629 | 15 | To get a sense of what is being traded off by folding 10 styles into a single network, we trained a separate, single-style network on each style and compared them to the 10-styles network in terms of style transfer quality and training speed (Figure 5).
The left column compares the learning curves for style and content losses between the single-style networks and the 10-styles network. The losses were averaged over 32 random batches of content images. By visual inspection, we observe that the 10-styles network converges as quickly as the single-style networks in terms of style loss, but lags slightly behind in terms of content loss.
In order to quantify this observation, we compare the ï¬nal losses for 10-styles and single-style models (center column). The 10-styles networkâs content loss is around 8.7 ± 3.9% higher than its

(2016b) and Zhang and Zong (2016) observe from large-scale exper- iments that the synthesized bilingual data using self-learning framework can substantially improve NMT performance. Since Dbp now contains bilin- gual dictionaries, we expect that the NMT trained on {Db, Dbp} cannot only signiï¬cantly boost the translation quality, but also solve the problem of rare word translation if they are covered by Dic.
Note that the pseudo sentence pair synthesis model can be further augmented by the mixed word/character model to solve other OOV trans- lations.

While the N -styles network suffers from a slight decrease in content loss convergence speed, this may not be a fair comparison, given that it takes N times more parameter updates to train N single- style networks separately than to train them with an N -styles network.

1610.07272 | 17 | # 4.1 Dataset
We perform the experiments on Chinese-to- English translation. Our bilingual training data Db includes 630K2 sentence pairs (each sentence length is limited up to 50 words) extracted from LDC corpora3. For validation, we choose NIST 2003 (MT03) dataset. For testing, we use NIST 2004 (MT04), NIST 2005 (MT05), NIST 2006 (MT06) and NIST 2006 (MT08) datasets. The test sentences are remained as their original length. As for the source-side monolingual data Dsm, we collect about 100M Chinese sentences in which approximately 40% are provided by Sogou and the rest are collected by searching the words in the bilingual data from the web. We use two bilingual dictionaries: one is from LDC (LDC2002L27) and the other is manually collected by ourselves. The combined dictionary Dic contains 86,252 translation lexicons in total.
# 4.2 Data Preprocessing
If necessary, the Chinese sentences are word seg- mented using Stanford Word Segmenter4. The En- glish sentences are tokenized using the tokenizer script from the Moses decoder5. We limit the vo- cabulary in both Chinese and English using a fre2Without using very large-scale data, it is relatively easy to evaluate the effectiveness of the bilingual dictionaries. | 1610.07272#17 | Bridging Neural Machine Translation and Bilingual Dictionaries | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in
several language pairs. However, it remains a challenging problem how to
integrate NMT with a bilingual dictionary which mainly contains words rarely or
never seen in the bilingual training data. In this paper, we propose two
methods to bridge NMT and the bilingual dictionaries. The core idea behind is
to design novel models that transform the bilingual dictionaries into adequate
sentence pairs, so that NMT can distil latent bilingual mappings from the ample
and repetitive phenomena. One method leverages a mixed word/character model and
the other attempts at synthesizing parallel sentences guaranteeing massive
occurrence of the translation lexicon. Extensive experiments demonstrate that
the proposed methods can remarkably improve the translation quality, and most
of the rare words in the test sentences can obtain correct translations if they
are covered by the dictionary. | http://arxiv.org/pdf/1610.07272 | Jiajun Zhang, Chengqing Zong | cs.CL | 10 pages, 2 figures | null | cs.CL | 20161024 | 20161024 | [

1610.07629 | 17 | 3.3 THE N-STYLES MODEL IS FLEXIBLE ENOUGH TO CAPTURE VERY DIFFERENT STYLES
We evaluated the ï¬exibility of the N -styles model by training a style transfer network on 32 works of art chosen for their diversity. Figure 1a shows the result of applying the trained network on eval- uation images for a subset of the styles. Once again, the full results are displayed in the Appendix. The model appears to be capable of modeling all 32 styles in spite of the tremendous variation in color palette and the spatial scale of the painting styles.
3.4 THE TRAINED NETWORK GENERALIZES ACROSS PAINTING STYLES
Since all weights in the transformer network are shared between styles, one way to incorporate a new style to a trained network is to keep the trained weights ï¬xed and learn a new set of γ and β parameters. To test the efï¬ciency of this approach, we used it to incrementally incorporate Monetâs Plum Trees in Blossom painting to the network trained on 32 varied styles. Figure 6 shows that doing so is much faster than training a new network from scratch (left) while yielding comparable pastiches: even after eight times fewer parameter updates than its single-style counterpart, the ï¬ne- tuned model produces comparable pastiches (right). | 1610.07629#17 | A Learned Representation For Artistic Style | The diversity of painting styles represents a rich visual vocabulary for the
construction of an image. The degree to which one may learn and parsimoniously
capture this visual vocabulary measures our understanding of the higher level
features of paintings, if not images in general. In this work we investigate
the construction of a single, scalable deep network that can parsimoniously
capture the artistic style of a diversity of paintings. We demonstrate that
such a network generalizes across a diversity of artistic styles by reducing a
painting to a point in an embedding space. Importantly, this model permits a
user to explore new painting styles by arbitrarily combining the styles learned
from individual paintings. We hope that this work provides a useful step
towards building rich models of paintings and offers a window on to the
structure of the learned representation of artistic style. | http://arxiv.org/pdf/1610.07629 | Vincent Dumoulin, Jonathon Shlens, Manjunath Kudlur | cs.CV, cs.LG | 9 pages. 15 pages of Appendix, International Conference on Learning

1610.07272 | 19 | # 4.3 Training and Evaluation Details
We build the described models using the Zoph RNN6 in C++/CUDA and provides training In the NMT architecture across multiple GPUs. as illustrated in Fig. the encoder includes 2, two stacked LSTM layers, followed by a global attention layer, and the decoder also contains two stacked LSTM layers followed by the softmax layer. The word embedding dimension and the size of hidden layers are all set to 1000.
Each NMT model is trained on GPU K80 us- ing stochastic gradient decent algorithm AdaGrad (Duchi et al., 2011). We use a mini batch size of B = 128 and we run a total of 20 iterations for all the data sets. The training time for each model ranges from 2 days to 4 days. At test time, we em- ploy beam search with beam size b = 10. We use case-insensitive 4-gram BLEU score as the auto- matic metric (Papineni et al., 2002) for translation quality evaluation.

Employing a single convex combination produces a smooth transition from one style to the other. Suppose (γ1, β1) and (γ2, β2) are the parameters corresponding to two different styles. We use γ = α à γ1 + (1 â α) à γ2 and β = α à β1 + (1 â α) à β2 to stylize an image. Employing convex combinations may be extended to an arbitrary number of styles 3. Figure 7 (right column) shows the style loss from the transformer network for a given source image, with respect to the Bicentennial Print and Head of a Clown paintings, as we vary α from 0 to 1. As α increases, the style loss with respect to Bicentennial Print increases, which explains the smooth fading out of that styleâs artifact in the transformed image.

1610.07629 | 24 | # 4 DISCUSSION
It seems surprising that such a small proportion of the networkâs parameters can have such an im- pact on the overall process of style transfer. A similar intuition has been observed in auto-regressive models of images (van den Oord et al., 2016b) and audio (van den Oord et al., 2016a) where the conditioning process is mediated by adjusting the biases for subsequent samples from the model. That said, in the case of art stylization when posed as a feedforward network, it could be that the speciï¬c network architecture is unable to take full advantage of its capacity. We see evidence for this behavior in that pruning the architecture leads to qualitatively similar results. Another interpretation could be that the convolutional weights of the style transfer network encode transformations that represent âelements of styleâ. The scaling and shifting factors would then provide a way for each style to inhibit or enhance the expression of various elements of style to form a global identity of style. While this work does not attempt to verify this hypothesis, we think that this would consti- tute a very promising direction of research in understanding the computation behind style transfer networks as well as the representation of images in general. | 1610.07629#24 | A Learned Representation For Artistic Style | The diversity of painting styles represents a rich visual vocabulary for the

(2016b) demonstrated exciting new methods for revising the loss to selectively adjust the spatial scale, color information and spatial localization of the artistic style information. These methods are complementary to the results in this paper and present an interesting direction for exploring how spatial and color information uniquely factor into artistic style representation.
The question of how predictive each style image is of its corresponding style representation is also of great interest. If it is the case that the style representation can easily be predicted from a style image,

1610.07629 | 26 | Finally, the learned style representation opens the door to generative models of style: by modeling enough paintings of a given artistic movement (e.g. impressionism), one could build a collection of style embeddings upon which a generative model could be trained. At test time, a style represen- tation would be sampled from the generative model and used in conjunction with the style transfer network to produce a random pastiche of that artistic movement.
In summary, we demonstrated that conditional instance normalization constitutes a simple, efï¬cient and scalable modiï¬cation of style transfer networks that allows them to model multiple styles at the same time. A practical consequence of this approach is that a new painting style may be transmitted to and stored on a mobile device with a small number of parameters. We showed that despite its simplicity, the method is ï¬exible enough to capture very different styles while having very little impact on training time and ï¬nal performance of the trained network. Finally, we showed that the learned representation of style is useful in arbitrarily combining artistic styles. This work suggests the existence of a learned representation for artistic styles whose vocabulary is ï¬exible enough to capture a diversity of the painted world.

(E)3 and it is correctly copied into target side, yielding a correct translation 3/.3. Moreover, some named entities (e.g. person name hecker) can be well translated. When adding the bilingual dictionary Dic as training data, the system Zoph_RNN-mixed-dic further gets a moderate improvement of 0.51 BLEU points (34.70 vs 34.19) on average. We find that the mixed model could make use of some rare or unseen translation lexicons in NMT, as illus- trated in the first two parts of Table 2. In the first part of Table 2, the English side of the translation lexicon is a frequent word (e.g. remain). The Chi- nese frequent character (e.g. /it%) shares the most meaning of the whole word (zhiliz) and thus it could be correctly translated into remain. We are a little surprised by the examples in the second part of Table 2, since the correct English parts are all OOV words which require each English charac- ter to be correctly generated. It demonstrates that the | 1610.07272#27 | Bridging Neural Machine Translation and Bilingual Dictionaries | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in

integrate NMT with a bilingual dictionary which mainly contains words rarely or
never seen in the bilingual training data. In this paper, we propose two
methods to bridge NMT and the bilingual dictionaries. The core idea behind is
to design novel models that transform the bilingual dictionaries into adequate
sentence pairs, so that NMT can distil latent bilingual mappings from the ample

the other attempts at synthesizing parallel sentences guaranteeing massive

It demonstrates that the mixed model has some ability to predict the correct character sequence. However, this mixed model fails in many scenarios. The third part in Table 2 gives some bad cases. If the first predicted character is wrong, the final word translation will be incorrect (e.g. take-owned lane vs. overtak- ing lane). This is the main reason why the mixed model could not obtain large improvements. | 1610.07272#28 | Bridging Neural Machine Translation and Bilingual Dictionaries | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in

1610.07272 | 30 | augmenting Zoph RNN-pseudo with bilingual dictionaries, we can further obtain con- siderable gains. The largest average improvement can be 3.41 BLEU points when compared to the baseline NMT Zoph RNN and 2.04 BLEU points when compared to Zoph RNN-pseudo (35.86 vs. 33.82).
When investigating the effect of pseudo sen- tence pair number (from K = 10 to K = 40), we ï¬nd that the performance is largely better and better if we synthesize more pseudo sentence pairs for each rare or unseen word translation pair (Dicx, Dicy). We can also notice that improve- ment gets smaller and smaller when K grows.
# 5.4 Mixed W/C Model vs. Data Synthesis Model
Comparing the results between the mixed model and the data synthesis model (Zoph RNN-mixed- dic vs. Zoph RNN-pseudo-dic) in Table 1, we can easily see that the data synthesis model is much better to integrate bilingual dictionaries in NMT. Zoph RNN-pseudo-dic can substantially outperform Zoph RNN-mixed-dic by an average improvement up to 1.69 BLEU points (36.39 vs. 34.70). | 1610.07272#30 | Bridging Neural Machine Translation and Bilingual Dictionaries | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in

1610.07272 | 31 | Through a deep analysis, we ï¬nd that most of rare or unseen words in test sets can be well trans- lated by Zoph RNN-pseudo-dic if they are covered by the bilingual dictionary. Table 3 reports the hit rate of the bilingual dictionaries. 0.71 indicates that 2010 (2831 à 0.71) words among the 2831 covered rare or unseen words in the test set can
be correctly translated. This table explains why Zoph RNN-pseudo-dic performs much better than Zoph RNN-mixed-dic.
The last two lines in Table 1 demonstrate that the combined method can further boost the trans- lation quality. The biggest average improvement over the baseline NMT Zoph RNN can be as large as 4.62 BLEU points, which is very promising. We believe that this method fully exploits the ca- pacity of the data synthesis model and the mixed model. Zoph RNN-pseudo-dic can well incorpo- rate the bilingual dictionary and Zoph RNN-mixed can well handle the OOV word translation. Thus, the combined method is the best. | 1610.07272#31 | Bridging Neural Machine Translation and Bilingual Dictionaries | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in

1610.07272 | 32 | One may argue that the proposed methods use bigger vocabulary and the performance gains may be attributed to the increased vocabulary size. We further conduct an experiment for the baseline NMT Zoph RNN by setting |Vc| = 4600 and |Ve| = 3400. We ï¬nd that this setting decreases the translation quality by an average BLEU points 0.88 (32.10 vs. 32.98). This further veriï¬es the superiority of our proposed methods.

The recently proposed neural machine translation has drawn more and more attention. Most of the existing methods mainly focus on designing better attention models (Luong et al., 2015b; Cheng et al., 2016a; Cohn et al., 2016; Feng et al., 2016; Liu et al., 2016; Meng et al., 2016; Mi et al., 2016a; Mi et al., 2016b; Tu et al., 2016), better objective functions for BLEU evaluation (Shen et al., 2016), better strategies for handling open vo- cabulary (Ling et al., 2015; Luong et al., 2015c; Jean et al., 2015; Sennrich et al., 2015b; Costa- Juss`a and Fonollosa, 2016; Lee et al., 2016; Li et al., 2016; Mi et al., 2016c; Wu et al., 2016) and exploiting large-scale monolingual data (Gulcehre et al., 2015; Sennrich et al., 2015a; Cheng et al., 2016b; Zhang and Zong, 2016).
Our focus in this work is aiming to fully inte- grate the discrete bilingual dictionaries into NMT. The most related works lie in three aspects: 1) applying the character-based method to deal with open vocabulary; 2) making use of the synthesized data in NMT, and 3) incorporating translation lex- icons in NMT. | 1610.07272#33 | Bridging Neural Machine Translation and Bilingual Dictionaries | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in

1610.07272 | 35 | Very recently, Arthur et al. (2016) try to use dis- crete translation lexicons in NMT. Their approach attempts to employ the discrete translation lexi- cons to positively inï¬uence the probability distri- bution of the output words in the NMT softmax layer. However, their approach only focuses on the words that belong to the vocabulary and the out- of-vocabulary (OOV) words are not considered. In contrast, we concentrated ourselves on the word translation lexicons which are rarely or never seen in the bilingual training data. It is a much tougher problem. The extensive experiments demonstrate that our proposed models, especially the data syn- thesis model, can solve this problem very well.
# 7 Conclusions and Future Work
In this paper, we have presented two models to bridge neural machine translation and the bilin- gual dictionaries in which translation lexicons are rarely or never seen in the bilingual training data. Our proposed methods focus on data transforma- tion mechanism which guarantees the massive and repetitive occurrence of the translation lexicon.
The mixed word/character model tackles this problem by re-labelling the OOV words with char- acter sequence, while our data synthesis model constructs adequate pseudo sentence pairs for each translation lexicon. The extensive experiments show that the data synthesis model substantially outperforms the mixed word/character model, and | 1610.07272#35 | Bridging Neural Machine Translation and Bilingual Dictionaries | Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has become the new state-of-the-art in

Currently, the data synthesis model does not distinguish the original bilingual training data from the synthesized parallel sentences in which the target sides are SMT translation results. In the future work, we plan to modify the neural network structure to avoid the negative effect of the SMT translation noise.

Published as a conference paper at ICLR 2017 | 1610.07629#36 | A Learned Representation For Artistic Style | The diversity of painting styles represents a rich visual vocabulary for the
construction of an image. The degree to which one may learn and parsimoniously
capture this visual vocabulary measures our understanding of the higher level
features of paintings, if not images in general. In this work we investigate
the construction of a single, scalable deep network that can parsimoniously
capture the artistic style of a diversity of paintings. We demonstrate that
such a network generalizes across a diversity of artistic styles by reducing a
painting to a point in an embedding space. Importantly, this model permits a
user to explore new painting styles by arbitrarily combining the styles learned
from individual paintings. We hope that this work provides a useful step
towards building rich models of paintings and offers a window on to the
structure of the learned representation of artistic style. | http://arxiv.org/pdf/1610.07629 | Vincent Dumoulin, Jonathon Shlens, Manjunath Kudlur | cs.CV, cs.LG | 9 pages. 15 pages of Appendix, International Conference on Learning

# 1 Introduction
Deep Reinforcement Learning offers new promise for achieving human-level control in robotics domains, especially for pixel-to-action scenarios where state estimation is from high dimensional sen- sors and environment interaction and feedback are critical. With deep RL, a new set of algorithms has emerged that can attain sophisticated, precise control on challenging tasks, but these accomplishments have been demonstrated primarily in simulation, rather than on actual robot platforms.
While recent advances in simulation-driven deep RL are impressive [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7], demonstrating learning capabilities on real robots remains the bar by which we must measure the practical applica- bility of these methods. However, this poses a signiï¬cant challenge, given the "data-hungry" training regime required for current pixel-based deep RL methods, and the relative frailty of research robots and their human handlers. One solution is to use transfer learning methods to bridge the reality gap that separates simulation from real world domains. In this paper, we use progressive networks, a deep learning architecture that has recently been proposed for transfer learning, to demonstrate such an approach, thus providing a proof-of-concept pathway by which deep RL can be used to effect fast policy learning on a real robot. | 1610.04286#2 | Sim-to-Real Robot Learning from Pixels with Progressive Nets | Applying end-to-end learning to solve complex, interactive, pixel-driven

This paper presents an approach for transfer from simulation to the real robot that is proven using real-world, sparse-reward tasks. The tasks are learned using end-to-end deep RL, with RGB inputs and joint velocity output actions. First, an actor-critic network is trained in simulation using multiple asynchronous workers [6]. The network has a convolutional encoder followed by an LSTM. From the LSTM state, using a linear layer, we compute a set of discrete action outputs that control the different degrees of freedom of the simulated robot as well as the value function. After training, a new network is initialized with lateral, nonlinear connections to each convolutional and recurrent layer of the simulation-trained network. The new network is trained on a similar task on the real robot. Our initial ï¬ndings show that the inductive bias imparted by the features and encoded policy of the simulation net is enough to give a dramatic learning speed-up on the real robot.

1610.04286 | 5 | # 2 Transfer Learning from Simulation to Real
Our approach relies on the progressive nets architecture, which enables transfer learning through lateral connections which connect each layer of previously learnt network columns to each new column, thus supporting rich compositionality of features. We ï¬rst summarize progressive nets, and then we discuss their application for transfer in robot domains.
# 2.1 Progressive Networks
Progressive networks are ideal for simulation-to-real transfer of policies in robot control domains, for multiple reasons. First, features learnt for one task may be transferred to many new tasks without destruction from ï¬ne-tuning. Second, the columns may be heterogeneous, which may be important for solving different tasks, including different input modalities, or simply to improve learning speed when transferring to the real robot. Third, progressive nets add new capacity, including new input connections, when transferring to new tasks. This is advantageous for bridging the reality gap, to accommodate dissimilar inputs between simulation and real sensors. | 1610.04286#5 | Sim-to-Real Robot Learning from Pixels with Progressive Nets | Applying end-to-end learning to solve complex, interactive, pixel-driven

When switching to a second task, the parameters Î(1) are âfrozenâ and a new column with parameters Î(2) is instantiated (with random initialization), where layer h(2) receives input from both h(2) iâ1 via lateral connections.

1610.04286 | 7 | In the standard pretrain-and-ï¬netune paradigm, there is often an implicit assumption of âoverlapâ between the tasks. Finetuning is efï¬cient in this setting, as parameters need only be adjusted slightly to the target domain, and often only the top layer is retrained. In contrast, we make no assumptions about the relationship between tasks, which may in practice be orthogonal or even adversarial. Progressive networks side-step this issue by allocating a new column, potentially with different structure or inputs, for each new task. Columns in progressive networks are free to reuse, modify or ignore previously learned features via the lateral connections.

This policy implicitly deï¬nes a stationary distribution ÏÏ(k)(s, a) over states and actions.

1610.04286 | 8 | # 2.2 Approach
The proposed approach for transfer from simulated to real robot domains is based on a progressive network with some speciï¬c changes. First, the columns of a progressive net do not need to have identical capacity or structure, and this can be an advantage in sim-to-real situations. Thus, the simulation-trained column is designed to have sufï¬cient capacity and depth to learn the task from scratch, but the robot-trained columns have minimal capacity, to encourage fast learning and limit total parameter growth. Secondly, the layer-wise adapters proposed for progressive nets are unnecessary for the output layers of complementary sequences of tasks, so they are not used. Third, the output layer of the robot-trained column is initialised from the simulation-trained column in order to improve exploration. These architectural features are shown in Fig. 1.

1610.04286 | 10 | The greatest risk in this approach to transfer learning is that rewards will be so sparse, or non-existent, in the real domain that the reinforcement learning will not improve a vastly suboptimal initial policy within a practical time frame. Thus, in order to maximise the likelihood of reward during exploration in the real domain, the new column is initialised such that the initial policy of the agent will be identical to the previous column. This is accomplished by initialising the weights coming from the last layer of the previous column to the output layer of the new column with the output weights of the previous column, and the connections incoming from the last hidden layer of the current column are initialised with zero-valued weights. Thus, using the example network in Fig. 1 (right), when and h(2) parameters Î(2) are instantiated, layer output(2) 2 . However, unlike the other parameters in Î(2), which will be randomly initialised, the weights W (2) out will be zeros and the weights U (1:2) out. Note that this only affects the initial policy of the agent and does not prevent the new column from training.

There exist many different paradigms for domain transfer and many approaches designed speciï¬cally for deep neural models, but substantially fewer approaches for transfer from simulation to reality for robot domains. Even more rare are methods that can be used for transfer in interactive, rich sensor domains using end-to-end (pixel-to-action) learning.
A growing body of work has been investigating the ability of deep networks to transfer between domains. Some research [9, 10] considers simply augmenting the target domain data with data from the source domain where an alignment exists. Building on this work, [11] starts from the observation that as one looks at higher layers in the model, the transferability of the features decreases quickly. To correct this effect, a soft constraint is added that enforces the distribution of the features to be
3
more similar. In [11], a âconfusionâ loss is proposed which forces the model to ignore variations in the data that separate the two domains [12, 13].
Based on [12], [14] attempts to address the simulation to reality gap by using aligned data. The work is focused on pose estimation of the robotic arm, where training happens on a triple loss that looks at aligned simulation to real data, including the domain confusion loss. The paper does not show the efï¬ciency of the method on learning novel complex policies. | 1610.04286#11 | Sim-to-Real Robot Learning from Pixels with Progressive Nets | Applying end-to-end learning to solve complex, interactive, pixel-driven

1610.04286 | 12 | Several recent works from the supervised learning literature, e.g. [15, 16, 17], demonstrate how ideas from the adversarial training of neural networks can be used to reduce the sensitivity of a trained network to inter-domain variations, without requiring aligned training data. Intuitively these approaches train a representation that makes it hard to distinguish between data points drawn from the different domains. These ideas have, however, not yet been tested in the context of control. Demonstrating the difï¬culty of the problem, [10] provides evidence that a simple application of a model trained on synthetic data on the real robot fails.
