    Abstract: Methods for training a neural sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) model. A processor receives the model and training data comprising a plurality of training source sequences and corresponding training target sequences, and generates corresponding predicted target sequences. Model parameters are updated based on a comparison of predicted target sequences to training target sequences to reduce or minimize both a local loss in the predicted target sequences and an expected loss of one or more global or semantic features or constraints between the predicted target sequences and the training target sequences given the training source sequences. Expected loss is based on global or semantic features or constraints of general target sequences given general source sequences.
