Symbolic and Sub Symbolic Natural Language Processing with Jonathan Mugan

Like last week's interview with Bruno Goncalves, this week's interview was also recorded at the last O'Reilly AI Conference back in New York in June. Also like last week's show, this week's is also focused on Natural Language Processing and I think you'll enjoy it. I'm joined by Jonathan Mugan, co-founder and CEO of Deep Grammar, a company that is building a grammar checker using deep learning and what they call deep symbolic processing. This interview is a great complement to my conversation with Bruno, and we cover a variety of topics from both the sub-symbolic and symbolic schools of NLP, such as attention mechanisms like sequence to sequence, and ontological approaches like WordNet, synsets, FrameNet, and SUMO.
