Non-Autoregressive Neural Machine Translation: A Call for Clarity

Demo

Dictation Auto-Punctuation

Dictation is one of the most heavily used input features on Apple devices. In our latest release, we have added auto-punctuation and emoji capabilities to dictation in 5 languages covering 13 locales. We support periods, commas, and question marks in the first version. These were identified as the top used punctuations that were explicitly dictated and also the punctuations that can be inferred from text alone. We have also added the ability to dictate frequently used emojis.

All EMNLP attendees are invited to stop by the Apple booth (booth number 4, located near Conference Room B of the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre) to experience this demo in person.
