Vector-Quantized Image Modeling with Improved VQGAN

Posted by Jiahui Yu, Senior Research Scientist, and Jing Yu Koh, Research Software Engineer, Google Research In recent years, natural language processing models have dramatically improved their ability to learn general-purpose representations, which has resulted in significant performance gains for…

Accelerating the pace of machine learning

Machine learning happens a lot like erosion. Data is hurled at a mathematical model like grains of sand skittering across a rocky landscape. Some of those grains simply sail along with little or no impact. But some of them make…

Contextual Rephrasing in Google Assistant

Posted by Aurelien Boffy, Senior Staff Software Engineer, and Roberto Pieraccini, Engineering Director, Google Assistant When people converse with one another, context and references play a critical role in driving their conversation more efficiently. For instance, if one asks the…

Learning Locomotion Skills Safely in the Real World

Posted by Jimmy (Tsung-Yen) Yang, Student Researcher, Robotics at Google The promise of deep reinforcement learning (RL) in solving complex, high-dimensional problems autonomously has attracted much interest in areas such as robotics, game playing, and self-driving cars. However, effectively training…
