In this talk, I will describe deep learning algorithms that learn representations for language that are useful for solving a variety of complex language problems. I will focus on 3 tasks: Fine-Grained sentiment analysis; Question answering to win trivia competitions (like Whatson's Jeopardy system but with one neural network); Multimodal sentence-image embeddings (with a fun demo!) to find images that visualize sentences. I will also show some demos of how deepNLP can be made easy to use with MetaMind.io's software. Richard Socher is the CTO and founder of MetaMind, a startup that seeks to improve artificial intelligence and make it widely accessible. He obtained his PhD from Stanford working on deep learning with Chris Manning and Andrew Ng. He is interested in developing new AI models that perform well across multiple different tasks in natural language processing and computer vision. He was awarded the 2011 Yahoo! Key Scientific Challenges Award, the Distinguished Application Paper Award at ICML 2011, a Microsoft Research PhD Fellowship in 2012 and a 2013 'Magic Grant' from the Brown Institute for Media Innovation and the 2014 GigaOM Structure Award. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scalæ By the Bay 2016 conference http://scala.bythebay.io -- is held on November 11-13, 2016 at Twitter, San Francisco, to share the best practices in building data pipelines with three tracks: * Functional and Type-safe Programming * Reactive Microservices and Streaming Architectures * Data Pipelines for Machine Learning and AI
