In this lecture, Christopher Manning, Thomas M. Siebel Professor in Machine Learning and Professor of Linguistics and of Computer Science, at Stanford University presents: "Building Neural Network Models That Can Reason." Abstract: Deep learning has had enormous success on perceptual tasks but still struggles in providing a model for inference. To address this gap, we have been developing Memory-Attention-Composition networks (MACnets). The MACnet design provides a strong prior for explicitly iterative reasoning, enabling it to support explainable, structured learning, as well as good generalization from a modest amount of data. The model builds on the great success of existing recurrent cells such as LSTMs: A MacNet is a sequence of a single recurrent Memory, Attention, and Composition (MAC) cell.
