This is work-in-progress and has not been fully tested yet. Use at your own risk!

A Seq2SeqEncoder that uses a Gated CNN.

Some possibilities:

Each element of the list is wrapped in a residual block: input_dim = 512 layers = [ [[4, 512]], [[4, 512], [4, 512]], [[4, 512], [4, 512]], [[4, 512], [4, 512]] dropout = 0.05

A "bottleneck architecture" input_dim = 512 layers = [ [[4, 512]], [[1, 128], [5, 128], [1, 512]], ... ]

An architecture with dilated convolutions input_dim = 512 layers = [ [[2, 512, 1]], [[2, 512, 2]], [[2, 512, 4]], [[2, 512, 8]], # receptive field == 16 [[2, 512, 1]], [[2, 512, 2]], [[2, 512, 4]], [[2, 512, 8]], # receptive field == 31 [[2, 512, 1]], [[2, 512, 2]], [[2, 512, 4]], [[2, 512, 8]], # receptive field == 46 [[2, 512, 1]], [[2, 512, 2]], [[2, 512, 4]], [[2, 512, 8]], # receptive field == 57 ]

Registered as a Seq2SeqEncoder with name "gated-cnn-encoder".

Parameters

  • input_dim : int
    The dimension of the inputs.
  • layers : Sequence[Sequence[Sequence[int]]]
    The layer dimensions for each ResidualBlock.
  • dropout : float, optional (default = 0.0)

  • return_all_layers : bool, optional (default = False)
    Whether to return all layers or just the last layer.
