How MLC Works
In exploring the possibility of bolstering compositional learning in neural networks, the researchers created MLC, a novel learning procedure in which a neural network is continuously updated to improve its skills over a series of episodes. In an episode, MLC receives a new word and is asked to use it compositionally—for instance, to take the word “jump” and then create new word combinations, such as “jump twice” or “jump around right twice.” MLC then receives a new episode that features a different word, and so on, each time improving the network’s compositional skills.

          Admittedly, they were quoting someone else in the message you responded to. That may have been edited after the fact, but the person they’re quoting did in fact say those words (“this is big”).

          It was I who couldn’t read, as that is not what happened.

          I am not sure what “image classification models” incompasses. I would have to read more and understand and I don’t have enough time and energy.
          Yet in the past I have read and understand a few books about neural networks and this new article in nature is something else : it’s clear when reading it.
