Task: Question Answering
Input (English): In Figure FIGREF32 , we visualize the syntactic distance estimated by the Parsing Network, while reading three different sequences from the PTB test set. We observe that the syntactic distance tends to be higher between the last character of a word and a space, which is a reasonable breakpoint to separate between words.  The model autonomously discovered to avoid inter-word attention connection, and use the hidden states of space (separator) tokens to summarize previous information. This is strong proof that the model can understand the latent structure of data. 
 Question: How do they show their model discovers underlying syntactic structure?
Output (English): By visualizing syntactic distance estimated by the parsing network
