Simultaneous speech translation (SimulST) is widely useful in many cross-lingual communication scenarios, including multinational conferences and international traveling. Since text-based simultaneous machine translation (SimulMT) has achieved great success in recent years. The conventional cascaded approach for SimulST uses a pipeline of streaming ASR followed by simultaneous MT but suffers from...
RNAs play important roles in multiple cellular processes, and many of their functions rely on folding to specific structures. To maintain their functions, secondary structures of RNA homologs are conserved across evolution. These conserved structures provide critical targets for diagnostics and therapeutics. Thus, there is a need for developing fast...
Most tasks in natural language processing (NLP) involves structured information from both input (e.g., a sentence or a paragraph) and output (e.g., a tag sequence, a parse tree or a translated sentence). While neural models achieve great successes in other domains such as computer vision, applying those frameworks to NLP...
