Examples of AI systems
100

In modern machine translation, this component compresses the meaning of a sentence into a vector.

What is an encoder?

100

This mechanism lets the decoder “look back” at specific input words while generating output.

What is attention?

100

Mitchell describes how this widely used translation system shifted from phrase based statistical methods to a neural network encoder-decoder model in 2016.

What is Google Translate?

200

For as long as this quality is lacking in caption generating, these translating systems will remain untrustworthy.

What is understanding?

200

This AI learning method relied on learning from data (such as large collections of sentences) rather than having humans specify rules in translation. 

What is Statistical Machine Learning?

200

a program used in virtually all evaluations of machine translations that compares a machines translation with those of humans and spits out out a score

What is Bilingual Evaluation Understudy (BLEU)?

300

a problem that occurs when an import to an encoder network becomes too long.

What is the system "forgets"?

300

complex units proposed by a Switzerland research group that assigns weights to individual units in a recurrent neural network that allows for the memory last throughout the sentence

What is Long short-term memory (LSTM)?

300

System developed by Google that translates images into language

What is Show and Tell?

400

Two types of language when it comes to translating words and sentences

What is Source Language and Target Language?

400

newer translation technology adopted by Google in 2016 that was “bridging the gap between human and machine translation” using deep learning

What is Neural Machine Translation?

400

Online demo system developed by Microsoft that automatically identifies the objects in a picture, interprets what is going on, and writes an accurate caption explaining it

What is CaptionBot?
