Best Papers I Read in 2020

Dec 28, 2020Dec 28, 2020 ehudreiterLeave a comment

Seven papers which I blogged or tweeted about in 2020, covering evaluation, safety, engineering and system building, and long-term perspective on NLP. I recommend these to all; they made an impact on me, perhaps they will make an impact on you as well!

Academic NLG should not fixate on end-to-end neural

Dec 1, 2020Dec 1, 2020 ehudreiter1 Comment

I was shocked when a PhD student recently told me that he thought he had to focus on end-to-end neural approaches, because this dominates the conferences he wants to publish in. I’m all for research in end-to-end neural, but fixating on this to the exclusion of everything else is a mistake. Especially since end-to-end neural approaches do not currently work very well.
