BERT: State-of-the-Art Pre-training for Natural Language Processing

We recently open sourced a new technique for Natural Language Processing pre-training called Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers, or BERT. With it, you can train your own state-of-the-art question answering system in about 30 minutes on a single Cloud TPU, or in a few hours using a single GPU. As usual, the post goes into some depth and has a link to the paper.

AdaNet: Fast and Flexible AutoML with Learning Guarantees

We recently introduced AdaNet, a lightweight TensorFlow-based framework for automatically learning high-quality models with minimal expert intervention. AdaNet builds on our recent reinforcement learning and evolutionary-based AutoML efforts to be fast and flexible while providing learning guarantees. Definitions, details, and a link to the GitHub are all on the post.
