I&amp;#x27;m going to try to answer your question, but I&amp;#x27;m still learning, so take this with a grain of salt. Some models have attention, but it is not a requirement. In models that do have attention, it may or may not be simple. In image captioning for example, you can do just that. See [1] for some pictures of this happening. But in this example, they are stepping through a caption, and seeing where the attention is focused for each word. Works fine for a short caption. Videos are just many images and sound, but already…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1502.03044/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

The network learns composition from fundamental shapes and gradients to compositional ones. It&amp;#x27;s kinda awe inspiring. Not NN specific, but some more work on explanations: https://homes.cs.washington.edu/~marcotcr/blog/lime/ Visualization of attention mechanisms is pretty cool for explanations: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1502.03044.pdf http://torch.ch/blog/2015/09/21/rmva.html&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1502.03044/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

There isn&amp;#x27;t enough information to tell exactly what is going on with Deepgram, but one way to approach this would be to construct a shared embedding space for words/phrases and speech. These types of embedding spaces are powerful [3][4][5], but not magic. Cool demo, looking forward to seeing more detail about what is going on. However I would quibble with the STT WER quoted above. Maybe in noisy environments with unknown speakers (and no voice normalization) this is accurate, but the kinds of clean…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1502.03044/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

It has also been used to great effect for taxi destination prediction (heterogenous information) [1], drug discovery [2], and general operations on graphs [3]. There are also lots of examples beyond classification - structured prediction such as image segmentation [4], predicting depth, surface normals, and pixels from only RGB [5], text to text translation [6], image captioning [7], Turing machines [8], speech synthesis [9], question answering (Q/A) [10][11]…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1502.03044/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
