Abstract:Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) are powerful sequence models that are particularly difficult to train. This paper proposes an adaptive stochastic Nesterov's accelerated quasi-Newton (aSNAQ) method for training RNNs. Several algorithms have been proposed earlier for training RNNs. However, due to high computational complexity, very few methods use second-order curvature information despite its ability to improve convergence. The proposed method is an accelerated second-order method that attempts to incorporate… Show more
