  • Publication number: 20210103816
    Abstract: The technology disclosed provides a quasi-recurrent neural network (QRNN) encoder-decoder model that alternates convolutional layers, which apply in parallel across timesteps, and minimalist recurrent pooling layers that apply in parallel across feature dimensions.
    Type: Application
    Filed: December 15, 2020
    Publication date: April 8, 2021
    Inventors: James BRADBURY, Stephen Joseph MERITY, Caiming XIONG, Richard SOCHER

  • Publication number: 20180082171
    Abstract: The technology disclosed provides a so-called “pointer sentinel mixture architecture” for neural network sequence models that has the ability to either reproduce a token from a recent context or produce a token from a predefined vocabulary. In one implementation, a pointer sentinel-LSTM architecture achieves state of the art language modeling performance of 70.9 perplexity on the Penn Treebank dataset, while using far fewer parameters than a standard softmax LSTM.
