In this task, you are given the abstract of a research paper. Your task is to generate a summary of this abstract. Your summary should not be very short, but it's better if it's not more than 30 words.

Ex Input:
We extend the recent results of (Arora et al., 2019) by a spectral analysis of representations corresponding to kernel and neural embeddings. They showed that in a simple single layer network, the alignment of the labels to the eigenvectors of the corresponding Gram matrix determines both the convergence of the optimization during training as well as the generalization properties. We generalize their result to kernel and neural representations and show that these extensions improve both optimization and generalization of the basic setup studied in (Arora et al., 2019).

Ex Output:
Spectral analysis for understanding how different representations can improve optimization and generalization.


Ex Input:
Flow-based generative models are powerful exact likelihood models with efficient sampling and inference. 
 Despite their computational efficiency, flow-based models generally have much worse density modeling performance compared to state-of-the-art autoregressive models. In this paper, we investigate and improve upon three limiting design choices employed by flow-based models in prior work: the use of uniform noise for dequantization, the use of inexpressive affine flows, and the use of purely convolutional conditioning networks in coupling layers. Based on our findings, we propose Flow++, a new flow-based model that is now the state-of-the-art non-autoregressive model for unconditional density estimation on standard image benchmarks. Our work has begun to close the significant performance gap that has so far existed between autoregressive models and flow-based models.

Ex Output:
Improved training of current flow-based generative models (Glow and RealNVP) on density estimation benchmarks


Ex Input:
When communicating, humans rely on internally-consistent language representations. That is, as speakers, we expect listeners to behave the same way we do when we listen. This work proposes several methods for encouraging such internal consistency in dialog agents in an emergent communication setting. We consider two hypotheses about the effect of internal-consistency constraints: 1) that they improve agents’ ability to refer to unseen referents, and 2) that they improve agents’ ability to generalize across communicative roles (e.g. performing as a speaker de- spite only being trained as a listener). While we do not find evidence in favor of the former, our results show significant support for the latter.

Ex Output:

Internal-consistency constraints improve agents ability to develop emergent protocols that generalize across communicative roles.
