Patent number: 11966839Abstract: A system comprising a causal convolutional neural network to autoregressively generate a succession of values of a data item conditioned upon previously generated values of the data item. The system includes support memory for a set of support data patches each of which comprises an encoding of an example data item. A soft attention mechanism attends to one or more patches when generating the current item value. The soft attention mechanism determines a set of scores for the support data patches, for example in the form of a soft attention query vector dependent upon the previously generated values of the data item. The soft attention query vector is used to query the memory.
