Abstract:

Neural networks are a family of powerful machine learning models. This book
focuses on the application of neural network models to natural language data.
The first half of the book (Parts I and II) covers the basics of supervised
machine learning and feed-forward neural networks, the basics of working with
machine learning over language data, and the use of vector-based rather than
symbolic representations for words. It also covers the computation-graph
abstraction, which allows to easily define and train arbitrary neural
networks, and is the basis behind the design of contemporary neural network
software libraries.

The second part of the book (Parts III and IV) introduces more specialized
neural network architectures, including 1D convolutional neural networks,
recurrent neural networks, conditioned-generation models, and attention-based
models. These architectures and techniques are the driving force behind
state-of-the-art algorithms for machine translation, syntactic parsing, and
many other applications. Finally, we also discuss tree shaped networks,
structured prediction, and the prospects of multi-task learning.
