• Abstract: A recent paper by Mucino, Okon and Sudarsky attempts an assessment of the Relational Interpretation of quantum mechanics. The paper presupposes assumptions that are precisely those questioned in the Relational Interpretation, thus undermining the value of the assessment.

  Off-Policy Evaluation (OPE) in contextual bandits is crucial for assessing new policies using existing data without costly experimentation.

• Discourse Cohesion Evaluation for Document-Level Neural Machine Translation [36.96887050831173]
  It is well known that translations generated by an excellent document-level neural machine translation (NMT) model are consistent and coherent. Existing sentence-level evaluation metrics like BLEU can hardly reflect the model's performance at the document level. We propose a new test suite that considers four cohesive manners to measure the cohesiveness of document translations.
