Well spotted - this is where I first created the algorithm that became ULMFiT! I wanted to show an example of transfer learning outside of computer vision for the course but couldn't find anything compelling. I was pretty sure a language model would work really well in NLP so tried it out, and was totally shocked when the very first model best the previous state of the art! Sebastian (author of this article) saw the lesson, and was kind enough to complete lots of experiments to test out the approach more carefully, and did a great job of writing up the results in a paper, which was then accepted by the ACL.
