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.

Example Input: We introduce a new type of deep contextualized word representation that models both (1) complex characteristics of word use (e.g., syntax and semantics), and (2) how these uses vary across linguistic contexts (i.e., to model polysemy). Our word vectors are learned functions of the internal states of a deep bidirectional language model (biLM), which is pretrained on a large text corpus. We show that these representations can be easily added to existing models and significantly improve the state of the art across six challenging NLP problems, including question answering, textual entailment and sentiment analysis. We also present an analysis showing that exposing the deep internals of the pretrained network is crucial, allowing downstream models to mix different types of semi-supervision signals.

Example Output: We introduce a new type of deep contextualized word representation that significantly improves the state of the art for a range of challenging NLP tasks.

Example Input: Word alignments are useful for tasks like statistical and neural machine translation (NMT) and annotation projection. Statistical word aligners perform well, as do methods that extract alignments jointly with translations in NMT. However, most approaches require parallel training data and quality decreases as less training data is available. We propose word alignment methods that require little or no parallel data. The key idea is to leverage multilingual word embeddings both static and contextualized for word alignment. Our multilingual embeddings are created from monolingual data only without relying on any parallel data or dictionaries. We find that traditional statistical aligners are outperformed by contextualized embeddings even in scenarios with abundant parallel data. For example, for a set of 100k parallel sentences, contextualized embeddings achieve a word alignment F1 that is more than 5% higher (absolute) than eflomal.
Example Output: We use representations trained without any parallel data for creating word alignments.

Example Input: In this paper, we propose the Asynchronous Accelerated Nonuniform Randomized Block Coordinate Descent algorithm (A2BCD). We prove A2BCD converges linearly to a solution of the convex minimization problem at the same rate as NU_ACDM, so long as the maximum delay is not too large. This is the first asynchronous Nesterov-accelerated algorithm that attains any provable speedup. Moreover, we then prove that these algorithms both have optimal complexity. Asynchronous algorithms complete much faster iterations, and A2BCD has optimal complexity. Hence we observe in experiments that A2BCD is the top-performing coordinate descent algorithm, converging up to 4-5x faster than NU_ACDM on some data sets in terms of wall-clock time. To motivate our theory and proof techniques, we also derive and analyze a continuous-time analog of our algorithm and prove it converges at the same rate.
Example Output:
We prove the first-ever convergence proof of an asynchronous accelerated algorithm that attains a speedup.
