Speech NLP Use GPT-2 for steganography ! Russian sentiment analysis library based on FastText and some small corpus; 10x smaller transformer . Looks amazingly similar in essence to classic LSTM-like models … it shares weights between layers. Really looking forward to trying this as drop-in replacement to some of our RNN units; Coding What is new in python 3.8 VS Code becomes better ; ML CV Facebook develops fashion++ for fashion look improvements Very cool real life application of semseg in trains Very cool idea - a residual block composed of multiple convolutional feature streams Deconstruction of the convolution:Shift layer Active Shift Layer TLDR - same as depthwise separable convolutions, but uses (learnable) shift operator instead of first convolution Downside - there is no mainsteam / proper PyTorch implementation that does not require custom CUDA kernels Using narration in instructional videos for cross-modal training Datasets FaceForensics - a deep fake detection dataset . The dataset itself is behind some academic registration wall, but they do not check what you type in; Image Harmonization dataset GitHub code search challenge - very cool - but train / test relation is kind of murky; Google releases parahprase dataset - PAWG
