It is well known that building analytical performance models in practice is difficult because it requires a considerable degree of proficiency in the underlying mathematics. In this paper, we propose a machine-learning approach to derive performance models from data. We focus on queuing networks, and crucially exploit a deterministic approximation of their average dynamics in terms of a compact system of ordinary differential equations. We encode these equations into a recurrent neural network whose weights can be directly related to model parameters. This allows for an interpretable structure of the neural network, which can be trained from system measurements to yield a white-box parameterized model that can be used for prediction purposes such as what-if analyses and capacity planning. Using synthetic models as well as a real case study of a load-balancing system, we show the effectiveness of our technique in yielding models with high predictive power.

Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are powerful architectures to model sequential data, due to their capability to learn short and long-term dependencies between the basic elements of a sequence. Nonetheless, popular tasks such as speech or images reco
gnition, involve multi-dimensional input features that are characterized by strong internal dependencies between the dimensions of the input vector. We propose a novel quaternion recurrent neural network (QRNN), alongside with a quaternion long-short term memory neural network (QLSTM), that take into account both the external relations and these internal structural dependencies with the quaternion algebra. Similarly to capsules, quaternions allow the QRNN to code internal dependencies by composing and processing multidimensional features as single entities, while the recurrent operation reveals correlations between the elements composing the sequence. We show that both QRNN and QLSTM achieve better performances than RNN and LSTM in a realistic application of automatic speech recognition. Finally, we show that QRNN and QLSTM reduce by a maximum factor of 3.3x the number of free parameters needed, compared to real-valued RNNs and LSTMs to reach better results, leading to a more compact representation of the relevant information.
We provide a general framework for studying recurrent neural networks (RNNs) trained by injecting noise into hidden states. Specifically, we consider RNNs that can be viewed as discretizations of stochastic differential equations driven by input data
. This framework allows us to study the implicit regularization effect of general noise injection schemes by deriving an approximate explicit regularizer in the small noise regime. We find that, under reasonable assumptions, this implicit regularization promotes flatter minima; it biases towards models with more stable dynamics; and, in classification tasks, it favors models with larger classification margin. Sufficient conditions for global stability are obtained, highlighting the phenomenon of stochastic stabilization, where noise injection can improve stability during training. Our theory is supported by empirical results which demonstrate improved robustness with respect to various input perturbations, while maintaining state-of-the-art performance.
Recurrent neural networks (RNNs), including long short-term memory (LSTM) RNNs, have produced state-of-the-art results on a variety of speech recognition tasks. However, these models are often too large in size for deployment on mobile devices with m
emory and latency constraints. In this work, we study mechanisms for learning compact RNNs and LSTMs via low-rank factorizations and parameter sharing schemes. Our goal is to investigate redundancies in recurrent architectures where compression can be admitted without losing performance. A hybrid strategy of using structured matrices in the bottom layers and shared low-rank factors on the top layers is found to be particularly effective, reducing the parameters of a standard LSTM by 75%, at a small cost of 0.3% increase in WER, on a 2,000-hr English Voice Search task.
Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are widely used as a memory model for sequence-related problems. Many variants of RNN have been proposed to solve the gradient problems of training RNNs and process long sequences. Although some classical models have
been proposed, capturing long-term dependence while responding to short-term changes remains a challenge. To this problem, we propose a new model named Dual Recurrent Neural Networks (DuRNN). The DuRNN consists of two parts to learn the short-term dependence and progressively learn the long-term dependence. The first part is a recurrent neural network with constrained full recurrent connections to deal with short-term dependence in sequence and generate short-term memory. Another part is a recurrent neural network with independent recurrent connections which helps to learn long-term dependence and generate long-term memory. A selection mechanism is added between two parts to help the needed long-term information transfer to the independent neurons. Multiple modules can be stacked to form a multi-layer model for better performance. Our contributions are: 1) a new recurrent model developed based on the divide-and-conquer strategy to learn long and short-term dependence separately, and 2) a selection mechanism to enhance the separating and learning of different temporal scales of dependence. Both theoretical analysis and extensive experiments are conducted to validate the performance of our model, and we also conduct simple visualization experiments and ablation analyses for the model interpretability. Experimental results indicate that the proposed DuRNN model can handle not only very long sequences (over 5000 time steps), but also short sequences very well. Compared with many state-of-the-art RNN models, our model has demonstrated efficient and better performance.
Semantic understanding of programs is a fundamental problem for programming language processing (PLP). Recent works that learn representations of code based on pre-training techniques in NLP have pushed the frontiers in this direction. However, the s
emantics of PL and NL have essential differences. These being ignored, we believe it is difficult to build a model to better understand programs, by either directly applying off-the-shelf NLP pre-training techniques to the source code, or adding features to the model by the heuristic. In fact, the semantics of a program can be rigorously defined by formal semantics in PL theory. For example, the operational semantics, describes the meaning of a valid program as updating the environment (i.e., the memory address-value function) through fundamental operations, such as memory I/O and conditional branching. Inspired by this, we propose a novel program semantics learning paradigm, that the model should learn from information composed of (1) the representations which align well with the fundamental operations in operational semantics, and (2) the information of environment transition, which is indispensable for program understanding. To validate our proposal, we present a hierarchical Transformer-based pre-training model called OSCAR to better facilitate the understanding of programs. OSCAR learns from intermediate representation (IR) and an encoded representation derived from static analysis, which are used for representing the fundamental operations and approximating the environment transitions respectively. OSCAR empirically shows the outstanding capability of program semantics understanding on many practical software engineering tasks.
