Training RNNs as Fast as CNNs (https://arxiv.org/abs/1709.02755)

48
/ 100
Emerging

Implements a parallelizable recurrent unit with CUDA kernels that achieves 10-16x speedup over cuDNN LSTM on GPUs while maintaining accuracy across NLP tasks. Features layer normalization, highway connections, and bidirectional processing with a PyTorch API matching `nn.LSTM`. Also includes SRU++, an improved variant combining recurrence with attention mechanisms for further training efficiency gains.
