Training recurrent neural networks is known to be difficult when time dependencies become long. Consequently, training standard gated cells such as gated recurrent units and long-short term memory on benchmarks where long-term memory is required remains an arduous task. In this work, we propose a general way to initialize any recurrent network connectivity through a process called warm-up to improve its capability to learn arbitrarily long time dependencies. This initialization process is designed to maximize network reachable multi-stability, i.e. the number of attractors within the network that can be reached through relevant input trajectories. Warming-up is performed before training, using stochastic gradient descent on a specifically designed loss. We show that warming-up greatly improves recurrent neural network performance on long-term memory benchmarks for multiple recurrent cell types, but can sometimes impede precision. We therefore introduce a parallel recurrent network structure with partial warm-up that is shown to greatly improve learning on long time-series while maintaining high levels of precision. This approach provides a general framework for improving learning abilities of any recurrent cell type when long-term memory is required.

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.
In this paper, the output reachable estimation and safety verification problems for multi-layer perceptron neural networks are addressed. First, a conception called maximum sensitivity in introduced and, for a class of multi-layer perceptrons whose a
ctivation functions are monotonic functions, the maximum sensitivity can be computed via solving convex optimization problems. Then, using a simulation-based method, the output reachable set estimation problem for neural networks is formulated into a chain of optimization problems. Finally, an automated safety verification is developed based on the output reachable set estimation result. An application to the safety verification for a robotic arm model with two joints is presented to show the effectiveness of proposed approaches.
The abundant recurrent horizontal and feedback connections in the primate visual cortex are thought to play an important role in bringing global and semantic contextual information to early visual areas during perceptual inference, helping to resolve
local ambiguity and fill in missing details. In this study, we find that introducing feedback loops and horizontal recurrent connections to a deep convolution neural network (VGG16) allows the network to become more robust against noise and occlusion during inference, even in the initial feedforward pass. This suggests that recurrent feedback and contextual modulation transform the feedforward representations of the network in a meaningful and interesting way. We study the population codes of neurons in the network, before and after learning with feedback, and find that learning with feedback yielded an increase in discriminability (measured by d-prime) between the different object classes in the population codes of the neurons in the feedforward path, even at the earliest layer that receives feedback. We find that recurrent feedback, by injecting top-down semantic meaning to the population activities, helps the network learn better feedforward paths to robustly map noisy image patches to the latent representations corresponding to important visual concepts of each object class, resulting in greater robustness of the network against noises and occlusion as well as better fine-grained recognition.
Structural credit assignment for recurrent learning is challenging. An algorithm called RTRL can compute gradients for recurrent networks online but is computationally intractable for large networks. Alternatives, such as BPTT, are not online. In thi
s work, we propose a credit-assignment algorithm -- algoname{} -- that approximates the gradients for recurrent learning in real-time using $O(n)$ operations and memory per-step. Our method builds on the idea that for modular recurrent networks, composed of columns with scalar states, it is sufficient for a parameter to only track its influence on the state of its column. We empirically show that as long as connections between columns are sparse, our method approximates the true gradient well. In the special case when there are no connections between columns, the $O(n)$ gradient estimate is exact. We demonstrate the utility of the approach for both recurrent state learning and meta-learning by comparing the estimated gradient to the true gradient on a synthetic test-bed.
Origin-destination (OD) matrices are often used in urban planning, where a city is partitioned into regions and an element (i, j) in an OD matrix records the cost (e.g., travel time, fuel consumption, or travel speed) from region i to region j. In th
is paper, we partition a day into multiple intervals, e.g., 96 15-min intervals and each interval is associated with an OD matrix which represents the costs in the interval; and we consider sparse and stochastic OD matrices, where the elements represent stochastic but not deterministic costs and some elements are missing due to lack of data between two regions. We solve the sparse, stochastic OD matrix forecasting problem. Given a sequence of historical OD matrices that are sparse, we aim at predicting future OD matrices with no empty elements. We propose a generic learning framework to solve the problem by dealing with sparse matrices via matrix factorization and two graph convolutional neural networks and capturing temporal dynamics via recurrent neural network. Empirical studies using two taxi datasets from different countries verify the effectiveness of the proposed framework.
