◆ cudnn_LSTM()

def rnn_cell.cudnn_LSTM (   model,
  input_blob,
  initial_states,
  dim_in,
  dim_out,
  scope,
  recurrent_params = None,
  input_params = None,
  num_layers = 1,
  return_params = False 
)
CuDNN version of LSTM for GPUs.
input_blob          Blob containing the input. Will need to be available
                    when param_init_net is run, because the sequence lengths
                    and batch sizes will be inferred from the size of this
                    blob.
initial_states      tuple of (hidden_init, cell_init) blobs
dim_in              input dimensions
dim_out             output/hidden dimension
scope               namescope to apply
recurrent_params    dict of blobs containing values for recurrent
                    gate weights, biases (if None, use random init values)
                    See GetLSTMParamNames() for format.
input_params        dict of blobs containing values for input
                    gate weights, biases (if None, use random init values)
                    See GetLSTMParamNames() for format.
num_layers          number of LSTM layers
return_params       if True, returns (param_extract_net, param_mapping)
                    where param_extract_net is a net that when run, will
                    populate the blobs specified in param_mapping with the
                    current gate weights and biases (input/recurrent).
                    Useful for assigning the values back to non-cuDNN
                    LSTM.

◆ InitFromLSTMParams()

def rnn_cell.InitFromLSTMParams (   lstm_pblobs,
  param_values 
)
Set the parameters of LSTM based on predefined values

◆ LSTM()

def rnn_cell.LSTM (   model,
  input_blob,
  seq_lengths,
  initial_states,
  dim_in,
  dim_out,
  scope,
  outputs_with_grads = (0,),
  return_params = False,
  memory_optimization = False,
  forget_bias = 0.0 
)
Adds a standard LSTM recurrent network operator to a model.

model: CNNModelHelper object new operators would be added to

input_blob: the input sequence in a format T x N x D
where T is sequence size, N - batch size and D - input dimention

seq_lengths: blob containing sequence lengths which would be passed to
LSTMUnit operator

initial_states: a tupple of (hidden_input_blob, cell_input_blob)
which are going to be inputs to the cell net on the first iteration

dim_in: input dimention

dim_out: output dimention

outputs_with_grads : position indices of output blobs which will receive
external error gradient during backpropagation

return_params: if True, will return a dictionary of parameters of the LSTM

memory_optimization: if enabled, the LSTM step is recomputed on backward step
               so that we don't need to store forward activations for each
               timestep. Saves memory with cost of computation.

◆ LSTMWithAttention()

def rnn_cell.LSTMWithAttention (   model,
  decoder_inputs,
  decoder_input_lengths,
  initial_decoder_hidden_state,
  initial_decoder_cell_state,
  initial_attention_weighted_encoder_context,
  encoder_output_dim,
  encoder_outputs,
  decoder_input_dim,
  decoder_state_dim,
  scope,
  attention_type = AttentionType.Regular,
  outputs_with_grads = (0, 4),
  weighted_encoder_outputs = None,
  lstm_memory_optimization = False,
  attention_memory_optimization = False,
  forget_bias = 0.0 
)
Adds a LSTM with attention mechanism to a model.

The implementation is based on https://arxiv.org/abs/1409.0473, with
a small difference in the order
how we compute new attention context and new hidden state, similarly to
https://arxiv.org/abs/1508.04025.

The model uses encoder-decoder naming conventions,
where the decoder is the sequence the op is iterating over,
while computing the attention context over the encoder.

model: CNNModelHelper object new operators would be added to

decoder_inputs: the input sequence in a format T x N x D
where T is sequence size, N - batch size and D - input dimention

decoder_input_lengths: blob containing sequence lengths
which would be passed to LSTMUnit operator

initial_decoder_hidden_state: initial hidden state of LSTM

initial_decoder_cell_state: initial cell state of LSTM

initial_attention_weighted_encoder_context: initial attention context

encoder_output_dim: dimension of encoder outputs

encoder_outputs: the sequence, on which we compute the attention context
at every iteration

decoder_input_dim: input dimention (last dimension on decoder_inputs)

decoder_state_dim: size of hidden states of LSTM

attention_type: One of: AttentionType.Regular, AttentionType.Recurrent.
Determines which type of attention mechanism to use.

outputs_with_grads : position indices of output blobs which will receive
external error gradient during backpropagation

weighted_encoder_outputs: encoder outputs to be used to compute attention
weights. In the basic case it's just linear transformation of
encoder outputs (that the default, when weighted_encoder_outputs is None).
However, it can be something more complicated - like a separate
encoder network (for example, in case of convolutional encoder)

lstm_memory_optimization: recompute LSTM activations on backward pass, so
             we don't need to store their values in forward passes

attention_memory_optimization: recompute attention for backward pass
