Sparse Attentive Backtracking: Long-Range Credit Assignment in Recurrent Networks
Nan Rosemary Ke, Anirudh Goyal, Olexa Bilaniuk +4
A major drawback of backpropagation through time (BPTT) is the difficulty of learning long-term dependencies, coming from having to propagate credit information backwards through e…
Learnable Explicit Density for Continuous Latent Space and Variational Inference
Chin-Wei Huang, Ahmed Touati, Laurent Dinh +4
In this paper, we study two aspects of the variational autoencoder (VAE): the prior distribution over the latent variables and its corresponding posterior. First, we decompose the…
A Hierarchical Latent Variable Encoder-Decoder Model for Generating Dialogues
Iulian Vlad Serban, Alessandro Sordoni, Ryan Lowe +4
Sequential data often possesses a hierarchical structure with complex dependencies between subsequences, such as found between the utterances in a dialogue. In an effort to model t…
