Incidental Supervision: Moving beyond Supervised Learning

Machine Learning and Inference methods have become ubiquitous in our attempt to induce more abstract representations of natural language text, visual scenes, and other messy, naturally occurring data, and support decisions that depend on it. However, learning models for these tasks is difficult partly because generating the necessary supervision signals for it is costly and does not scale. This...

Instructions can take several forms, from complete specification of policies, to directing the agent’s search to specific parts of th...
