Published as a conference paper at ICLR 2020 MEASURING COMPOSITIONAL GENERALIZATION: ACOMPREHENSIVE METHOD ON REALISTIC DATA Daniel Keysers, Nathanael Schärli, Nathan Scales, Hylke Buisman, Daniel Furrer, Sergii Kashubin, Nikola Momchev, Danila Sinopalnikov, Lukasz Stafiniak, Tibor Tihon, Dmitry Tsarkov, Xiao Wang, Marc van Zee & Olivier Bousquet Google Research, Brain Team {keysers,schaerli,nkscales,hylke,danielfurrer,sergik,nikola,sinopalnikov, lukstafi,ttihon,tsar,wangxiao,marcvanzee,obousquet}@google.com ABSTRACT State-of-the-art machine learning methods exhibit limited compositional general- ization. At the same time, there is a lack of realistic benchmarks that comprehen- sively measure this ability, which makes it challenging to find and evaluate im- provements. We introduce a novel method to systematically construct such bench- marks by maximizing compound divergence while guaranteeing a small atom di- vergence between train and test sets, and we quantitatively compare this method to other approaches for creating compositional generalization benchmarks. We present a large and realistic natural language question answering dataset that is constructed according to this method, and we use it to analyze the compositional generalization ability of three machine learning architectures. We find that they fail to generalize compositionally and that there is a surprisingly strong nega- tive correlation between compound divergence and accuracy. We also demonstrate how our method can be used to create new compositionality benchmarks on top of the existing SCAN dataset, which confirms these findings. 1 INTRODUCTION Human intelligence exhibits systematic compositionality (Fodor & Pylyshyn, 1988), the capacity to understand and produce a potentially infinite number of novel combinations of known components, i.e., to make “infinite use of finite means” (Chomsky, 1965).

When Jay and Silent Bob discover that Hollywood is rebooting an old movie based on them, the clueless duo embark on another cross-country mission to stop it all over again! 1 CAST & CREW BIOGRAPHIES: KEVIN SMITH (Silent Bob, Director / Writer) Kevin Smith has been saying silly cinematic shit since his first film Clerks, released way back in 1994. He had a heart attack and almost died last year but survived solely so he could direct his magnum opus, Jay and Silent Bob Reboot. A polygamist, he’s married to both his wife Jen and podcasting. JASON MEWES (Jay) Jason Mewes most recently made his directorial debut on MADNESS IN THE METHOD, which was released in August 2019. With cult-fans following his controversial antics, Mewes has captured audiences with his rebellious banter against his unspoken other half and longtime friend, Kevin Smith. Since the beginning of the duo’s offbeat work together, Mewes and Smith have continued to build on their beloved character-driven roles from the Jay and Silent Bob series. It’s been over a decade since fans last saw the duo in live- action, but they’re back along with a star-studded cast in the upcoming comedy film, JAY AND SILENT BOB REBOOT.

This essay examines two recent U.S. films that explicitly connect art and women’s bisexuality: Kevin Smith’s Chasing Amy (1997) and Lisa Cholodenko’s High Art (1998). The affiliation between bisexuality and art reflects a paradox: an erotics of refusing distinctions, bisexuality acts as a metaphor for both the breakdown of sexual catego- ries and the blending of high art and low entertainment.

Drama/Thriller – 12 October 2012 (USA)
Friday 28th November 2014 - ĊAK, Birkirkara Argo The movie was fake. The mission was real. 120 minutes –Drama/Thriller – 12 October 2012 (USA) Acting under the cover of a Hollywood producer scouting a location for a science fiction film, a CIA agent launches a dangerous operation to rescue six Americans in Tehran during the U.S. hostage crisis in Iran in 1980. Director: Ben Afflek Writers: Chris Terrio (screenplay), Tony Mendez (based on a selection from "The Master of Disguise" by), Joshuah Bearman (based on the Wired Magazine article "The Great Escape" by) Original Music: Alexandre Desplat Actors Ben Affleck ... Tony Mendez Bryan Cranston ... Jack O'Donnell Alan Arkin ... Lester Siegel John Goodman ... John Chambers Victor Garber ... Ken Taylor Tate Donovan ... Bob Anders Clea DuVall ... Cora Lijek Scoot McNairy ... Joe Stafford Rory Cochrane ... Lee Schatz Christopher Denham ... Mark Lijek The story After Iranian militants stormed and took control of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran in November 1979 taking 56 Americans as hostages, six Americans managed to get away and took refuge in the home of Canadian Ambassador Ken Taylor. After two months of the Canadians putting their lives on the line everyday, the CIA and the US State Department try to come up with a plan to get their people out. Tony Mendez is an "ex filtration" specialist who proposes that they pose as a Canadian film crew scouting locations for a science fiction movie called Argo. Using Hollywood connections, Mendez creates a back story for the movie - ads in Variety, casting calls, inviting the media to a production launch - and then heads off to Iran to lead the six Americans out.
