GATED FAST WEIGHTS FOR ASSOCIATIVE RETRIEVAL

ICLR 2018  ·  Imanol Schlag, Jürgen Schmidhuber ·

We improve previous end-to-end differentiable neural networks (NNs) with fast weight memories. A gate mechanism updates fast weights at every time step of a sequence through two separate outer-product-based matrices generated by slow parts of the net. The system is trained on a complex sequence to sequence variation of the Associative Retrieval Problem with roughly 70 times more temporal memory (i.e. time-varying variables) than similar-sized standard recurrent NNs (RNNs). In terms of accuracy and number of parameters, our architecture outperforms a variety of RNNs, including Long Short-Term Memory, Hypernetworks, and related fast weight architectures.
