Large Margin Neural Language Model

We propose a large margin criterion for training neural language models. Conventionally, neural language models are trained by minimizing perplexity (PPL) on grammatical sentences. However, we demonstrate that PPL may not be the best metric to optimize in some tasks, and further propose a large margin formulation. The proposed method aims to enlarge the margin between the "good" and "bad" sentences in a task-specific sense. It is trained end-to-end and can be widely applied to tasks that involve re-scoring of generated text. Compared with minimum-PPL training, our method gains up to 1.1 WER reduction for speech recognition and 1.0 BLEU increase for machine translation.Comment: 9 pages.

Diseño e implementación de una Red Lan para la Empresa Palinda

The management of the LAN and WAN networks has allowed companies and institutions to optimize the use of resources through a centralized network, allowing the availability of information in a secure and fast way. The present project seeks to integrate communication services, allowing the transmission of data from a central point to the different departments of PALINDA. The fact of performing an analysis of the requirements of the infrastructure allows us to determine a solution with the available technical resources and financially with low costs. PALINDA currently does not have any infrastructure communication technology, so to be able to manage the network in a single system, allows to streamline the procedures and processes so that users get updated information, systematized and in real time streamlining functions.La administración de las redes LAN y WAN en la actualidad ha permitido a las empresas e instituciones optimizar el uso de los recursos mediante una red centralizada permitiendo disponer la información de forma segura y rápida.

The endomorphism of Grassmann graphs

A graph is called a pseudo-core if every endomorphism is either an automorphism or a colouring. In this paper, we show that every Grassmann graph $J_q(n,m)$ is a pseudo-core. Moreover, the Grassmann graph $J_q(n,m)$ is a core whenever $m$ and $n-m+1$ are not relatively prime, and $J_q(2pk-2, pk-1)$ is a core whenever $p,k\geq 2$.Comment: 8 page
