在过去的两年中，大家都见证了自然语言处理在各种不同任务和应用程序上的飞速进展。这一发展是由于我们改变了以往的NLP研究方法所导致的。

过去的很长一段时间,我们使用pre-trained 的 word embedding 比如word2vec或Glove等初始化神经网络的第一层,然后在它后面，在附上特定于任务的架构,然后以有监督的方式在某一个数据集上训练。

但是，近期，有几项研究表明，我们可以利用非监督(或自监督)信号(如语言建模)，在web规模的数据集上学习分层上下文表示，并将这种预训练结果，转移到下游任务(转移学习)。更令人兴奋的是，这种转变导致了下游应用领域的重大进展，从QA到自然语言推理……

几周前，我的一个朋友决定投身于NLP。他已经有机器学习和深度学习的背景，所以他真诚地问我:“我可以阅读哪些论文来跟上现代NLP的最新趋势?”

这是一个非常好的问题，尤其是当您考虑到NLP会议(以及一般的ML会议)收到的提交论文数量呈指数级增长时:+80%的ACL 2019 VS 2018， +90% ACL 2019 VS 2018，……

我为他整理了这一系列的论文和资源，我也很高兴将这个列表与社区分享，因为我相信它可以对很多人有用。

免责声明:本列表不是详尽的，也不是涵盖NLP中的每个主题(例如，没有关于语义解析、对抗性学习、应用于NLP的强化学习等)。这本书是过去几年/几个月(截止2019年5月)最具影响力的作品之一，主要受我所读内容的影响。
