Tree-structured LSTM is promising way to consider long-distance interaction over hierarchies. However, there have been few research efforts on the hyperparameter tuning of the construction and traversal of tree-structured LSTM. To name a…
We introduce recurrent additive networks (RANs), a new gated RNN which is distinguished by the use of purely additive latent state updates. At every time step, the new state is computed as a gated component-wise sum of the input and the…
Computing the reliability of a time-varying network, taking into account its dynamic nature, is crucial for networks that change over time, such as space networks, vehicular ad-hoc networks, and drone networks. These networks are modeled…
