Testing These New Papers

If you would like to test these new features, you can:

python ptb_word_lm.py

Simply modify the rnn_cell variable under the PTBModel

Please run with Tensorflow 0.8 or higher

Highway Networks

https://arxiv.org/abs/1505.00387

Allows greater depth of neural network freely without penalty from upper layers. Ensures shortcut connections within deeper layers.

import highway_networks_modern

output = highway_networks_modern.highway(inputs, num_layers = 3)

Recurrent Highway Networks

http://arxiv.org/abs/1607.03474

Allows multiple stacking of layers within one cell to increase depth per timestep.

import rnn_cell_modern

cell = rnn_cell_modern.HighwayRNNCell(num_units, num_highway_layers = 3)

Multiplicative Integration Within RNNs

https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.06630

Allows faster convergence within RNNs by utilizing the combination of two separate weight matrices in a multiplicative setting

import rnn_cell_mulint_modern

cell = rnn_cell_mulint_modern.BasicRNNCell_MulInt(num_units)
#OR
cell = rnn_cell_mulint_modern.GRUCell_MulInt(num_units)
#OR
cell = rnn_cell_mulint_modern.BasicLSTMCell_MulInt(num_units)
#OR
cell = rnn_cell_mulint_modern.HighwayRNNCell_MulInt(num_units, num_highway_layers = 3)

GRU Mutants

http://www.jmlr.org/proceedings/papers/v37/jozefowicz15.pdf

Mutants of GRU that may work better in different scenarios:

cell = rnn_cell_modern.JZS1Cell(num_units)
#Or
cell = rnn_cell_modern.JZS2Cell(num_units)
#Or
cell = rnn_cell_modern.JZS3Cell(num_units)
