The Best of AI: New Articles Published This Month (April 2018)

We begin this journey through our favorite articles of the month by discovering and reading one of the most influential paper of natural language processing (NLP). Papers can be intimidating to read. So I liked the author's idea of combining screenshots from the original paper, explanations in plain English and code snippets with an actual implementation of the paper in Python. The article can be read at different levels: from the presentation of encoders, decoders and the attention function to real-world examples including the use of regularization and GPU training. One of the world-famous universities of California -- Berkleley -- launches its new data science program.
