11 Sequence-to-sequence

This chapter covers

  • Preparing a sequence-to-sequence dataset and loader
  • Combining RNNs with attention mechanisms
  • Building a machine translation model
  • Interpreting attentionscores to understand a model’s decisions

Now that we have learned about attention mechanisms, we can wield them to build something new and powerful. In particular, we will develop an algorithm known as sequence-to-sequence (Seq2Seq for short) that can perform machine translation. As the name implies, this is an approach for getting neural networks to take one sequence as input and produce a different sequence as the output. Seq2Seq has been used to get computers to perform symbolic calculus,1 summarize long documents,2 and even translate from one language ...
