Interesting things at NIPS 2015 – Machine Learning (Theory)

NIPS is getting big. If you think of each day as a conference crammed into a day, you get a good flavor of things. Here are some of the interesting things I saw. Grammar as a foreign language. Essentially, attention model + LSTM + a standard dataset = good parser. A New View of Predictive State Methods for Dynamical System Learning. Predicting future from past and future+1 from past allows you to
