[EX Q]:   Analysis methods which enable us to better understand the
  representations and functioning of neural models of language are
  increasingly needed as deep learning becomes the dominant approach
  in NLP. Here we present two methods based on Representational
  Similarity Analysis (RSA) and Tree Kernels (TK) which allow us to
  directly quantify how strongly the information encoded in neural
  activation patterns corresponds to information represented by
  symbolic structures such as syntax trees. We first validate our
  methods on the case of a simple synthetic language for arithmetic
  expressions with clearly defined syntax and semantics, and show that
  they exhibit the expected pattern of results. We then apply our methods to
  correlate neural representations of English sentences with their
  constituency parse trees.

[EX Q]: In classic papers, Zellner (1988, 2002) demonstrated that Bayesian inference could be derived as the solution to an information theoretic functional.   Below we derive a generalized form of this functional as a variational lower bound of a predictive information bottleneck objective.   This generalized functional encompasses most modern inference procedures and suggests novel ones.

[EX Q]: In this paper, we show a phenomenon, which we named ``super-convergence'', where residual networks can be trained using an order of magnitude fewer iterations than is used with standard training methods.    The existence of super-convergence is relevant to understanding why deep networks generalize well.   One of the key elements of super-convergence is training with cyclical learning rates and a large maximum learning rate.   Furthermore, we present evidence that training with large learning rates improves performance by regularizing the network. In addition, we show that super-convergence provides a  greater boost in performance relative to standard training when the amount of labeled training data is limited.   We also derive a simplification of the Hessian Free optimization method to compute an estimate of the optimal learning rate.   The architectures to replicate this work will be made available upon publication.

[EX A]:
Empirical proof of a new phenomenon requires new theoretical insights and is relevent to the active discussions in the literature on SGD and understanding generalization.
