What Does BERT Look At? An Analysis of BERT’s Attention
Researchers propose methods for analyzing the attention mechanisms of pre-trained models and apply them to BERT. BERT’s attention heads exhibit patterns such as attending to delimiter tokens, specific positional offsets, or broadly attending over the whole sentence, with heads in the same layer often exhibiting similar behaviors.

Are Weights Really Important to Neural Networks?
As with the age-old “nature versus nurture” debate, AI researchers want to know whether architecture or weights play the main role in the performance of neural networks. In a blow to the “nurture” side, Google researchers have now demonstrated that a neural network which has not learned weights through training can still achieve satisfactory results in machine learning tasks.

Episodic Memory in Lifelong Language Learning
Researchers introduce a lifelong language learning setup where a model needs to learn from a stream of text examples without any dataset identifier. They propose an episodic memory model that performs sparse experience replay and local adaptation to mitigate catastrophic forgetting in this setup.

BatchNorm + Dropout = DNN Success!
A group of researchers from Tencent Technology, the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and Nankai University recently combined two commonly used techniques — Batch Normalization (BatchNorm) and Dropout — into an Independent Component (IC) layer inserted before each weight layer to make inputs more independent.
