problem Enhancing neural network models for effective question answering.
method Implemented a Bi-directional attention flow layer connected to a Multi-layer LSTM encoder, with a new end-index decoder layer conditioning on start-index output.

We discuss two parameterizations of models for marginal independencies for discrete distributions which are representable by bi-directed graph models, under the global Markov property. Such models are useful data analytic tools especially if used in combination with other graphical models. The first parameterization, i…
BiHRNN predicts inflation by leveraging hierarchical structure and bidirectional RNNs.
problem Accurate inflation forecasting is challenging due to dynamic factors and the layered structure of the Consumer Price Index.
method Bi-directional Hierarchical Recurrent Neural Network (BiHRNN) model that uses bidirectional information flow between levels and informative constraints on RNN parameters.
result BiHRNN significantly outperforms traditional RNN models in forecasting accuracy.
Graphical models with bi-directed edges (<->) represent marginal independence: the absence of an edge between two vertices indicates that the corresponding variables are marginally independent. In this paper, we consider maximum likelihood estimation in the case of continuous variables with a Gaussian joint distributio…
The covariance graph (aka bi-directed graph) of a probability distribution p is the undirected graph G where two nodes are adjacent iff their corresponding random variables are marginally dependent in p. In this paper, we present a graphical criterion for reading dependencies from G, under the assumption that $…
We replace the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) which is traditionally used in in continuous speech recognition with a bi-directional recurrent neural network encoder coupled to a recurrent neural network decoder that directly emits a stream of phonemes. The alignment between the input and output sequences is established usin…
Improved sentiment analysis explanations using LRP for RNNs.
problem Creating understandable explanations for recurrent neural network predictions.
method Extending Layer-wise Relevance Propagation (LRP) to recurrent neural networks (RNNs), specifically to multiplicative connections in LSTMs and GRUs.
result Better explanation quality for sentiment analysis tasks using LRP compared to gradient-based methods.
Motivated by the need to automate medical information extraction from free-text radiological reports, we present a bi-directional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) neural network architecture for modelling radiological language. The model has been used to address two NLP tasks: medical named-entity recognition (NER) and …
State-of-the-art sequence labeling systems traditionally require large amounts of task-specific knowledge in the form of hand-crafted features and data pre-processing. In this paper, we introduce a novel neutral network architecture that benefits from both word- and character-level representations automatically, by usi…
BiSHop tackles tabular data challenges with sparse Hopfield layers.
problem Non-rotationally invariant data structure and feature sparsity in tabular data.
method Sequential column-wise and row-wise processing through interconnected directional learning modules with generalized sparse modern Hopfield layers.
result BiSHop surpasses current SOTA methods with significantly less hyperparameter tuning.
Several methods exist to infer causal networks from massive volumes of observational data. However, almost all existing methods require a considerable length of time series data to capture cause and effect relationships. In contrast, memory-less transition networks or Markov Chain data, which refers to one-step transit…

problem Improving the accuracy and naturalness of synthesized singing voices.
method Developed a multi-singer Chinese neural singing voice synthesis system with deep bi-directional LSTM, Transformer, LPCNet, and data augmentation.
result WeSinger achieves state-of-the-art performance on the Opencpop corpus.
