L0-regularization induces subregular biases in LSTMs

Ongoing work attempts to identify the formal language patterns in natural language. In phonology, recent work has identified the subregular languages as a good candidate (Heinz, 2018). However, there remain few explanations for the source of this bias. This abstract proposes a means of investigating formal language learnability. We propose using a variant of minimum description length (MDL) as defined on LSTMs with varying priors on LSTM size. We will show its utility on a test case from Heinz and Idsardi (2013) and Rawski et al. (2017)

The Next Generation Of U.S. Farm Policies

Clearly U.S. agriculture has excess capacity. U.S. consumption plus foreign sales were 5-10% less than production in 1981 and 82. Except for massive and expensive supply control, 1983 production would similarly exceed the weak current demand. Stocks of corn and rice at the end of the current marketing year will be about 50% of this year\u27s utilization. For wheat and cotton the carryover into next year will be about 70% of this years\u27 disappearance..

The future for sheep

In the 1960\u27s the sheep industry has been described as being at a crossroads. Serious concern has been expressed over the future of the entire industry. Declining numbers, competition from other meats and fabrics and low returns have all been cited as reasons for pessimism. But recent developments in product improvement and industrywide efforts to a~tack problems have given rise to a degree of cautious optimism about the future.https://lib.dr.iastate.edu/card_reports/1022/thumbnail.jp

EMSL and Institute for Integrated Catalysis (IIC) Catalysis Workshop

Within the context of significantly accelerating scientific progress in research areas that address important societal problems, a workshop was held in November 2010 at EMSL to identify specific and topically important areas of research and capability needs in catalysis-related science
