This thesis is about modeling text and speech sequences to achieve lower perplexity, better generation, and benefit downstream language tasks; specifically, we address the problem of modeling natural language sequences (text and speech) with Transformer-based language models. We present three new techniques that improve sequence modeling in different ways.

“Scale” is a complex notion that encompasses some easy-ish-to-measure factors such as the resource footprint or transaction rate of a system, but also substantially more subtle considerations such as service dependencies that influence the cost of making changes and team behaviors that affect how long it takes to resolve a production issue.
