LAYERS: Yet another Neural Network toolkit

Roberto Paredes, José-Miguel Benedí

Layers is an open source neural network toolkit aim at providing an easy way to implement modern neural networks. The main user target are students and to this end layers provides an easy scriptting language that can be early adopted. The user has to focus only on design details as network totpology and parameter tunning.

Discriminative Learning for Probabilistic Context-Free Grammars based on Generalized H-Criterion

Mauricio Maca, José Miguel Benedí, Joan Andreu Sánchez

We present a formal framework for the development of a family of discriminative learning algorithms for Probabilistic Context-Free Grammars (PCFGs) based on a generalization of criterion-H. First of all, we propose the H-criterion as the objective function and the Growth Transformations as the optimization method, which allows us to develop the final expressions for the estimation of the parameters of the PCFGs. And second, we generalize the H-criterion to take into account the set of reference interpretations and the set of competing interpretations, and we propose a new family of objective functions that allow us to develop the expressions of the estimation transformations for PCFGs.
