Distilling Word Embeddings: An Encoding Approach
Distilling knowledge from a well-trained cumbersome network to a small one
has recently become a new research topic, as lightweight neural networks with
high performance are particularly in need in various resource-restricted
systems. This paper addresses the problem of distilling word embeddings for NLP
tasks. We propose an encoding approach to distill task-specific knowledge from
a set of high-dimensional embeddings, which can reduce model complexity by a
large margin as well as retain high accuracy, showing a good compromise between
efficiency and performance. Experiments in two tasks reveal the phenomenon that
distilling knowledge from cumbersome embeddings is better than directly
training neural networks with small embeddings.Comment: Accepted by CIKM-16 as a short paper, and by the Representation

Meson Instability of Quantum Many-body Scars in a 1D Lattice Gauge Theory
We investigate the stability of meson excitations (particle-antiparticle
bound states) in quantum many-body scars of a 1D lattice gauge
theory coupled to a dynamical spin- chain as a matter field. By
introducing a string representation of the physical Hilbert space, we express a
scar state as a superposition of all string bases with an
identical string number and a total length . For the small- scar
state , the gauge-invariant spin exchange correlation
function of the matter field hosts an exponential decay as the distance
increases, indicating the existence of stable mesons. However, for large ,
the correlation function exhibits a power-law decay, signaling the emergence of
a meson instability. Furthermore, we show that this mesonic-nonmesonic
crossover can be detected by the quench dynamics, starting from two
low-entangled initial states, respectively, which are experimentally feasible
in quantum simulators. Our results expand the physics of quantum many-body
scars in lattice gauge theories and reveal that the nonmesonic state can also
manifest ergodicity breaking.Comment: 7+2 pages, 4+1 figure
