Neural Symbolic Machines: Learning Semantic Parsers with Weak Supervision

  • I know that the field of deep learning / machine learning generally moves too fast for researchers to target conferences or journals, but several of the citations in the PDF of this article are missing (LaTeX inserted [?]).

    (GRU, in case anyone is wondering, stands for "gated recurrent unit" and is a building block of standard LSTMs)

    EDIT: now that I've finished the paper, I've realized that the citations are straight-up missing. That's no good, but I'm sure the authors just messed up the arxiv upload. If OP knows them, they should let them know... failing to include any citations at all is a quick way to decrease the credibility of an article.

  • Hi, I am Chen Liang, the first author of the paper. Thanks for pointing out the Latex problem and sorry for the inconvenience.

    We are trying to fix the Latex problem and submit a replacement to ArXiv soon. In the meantime, we hosted the PDF version of the paper on another link:

    Thanks and look forward to your feedbacks and suggestions :)

  • Interesting. It wasn't until the end of the paper and re-read the top that I noticed "Liang" isn't actually Percy Liang (with whom Berant has collaborated a lot in the past)
