Sequence models & translation

Recurrent, convolutional and encoder–decoder models that map one sequence to another.

Concepts in Sequence models & translation
ConceptIntroduced byYearsPapers
Encoder–decoder seq2seq
Encode an input sequence, then decode an output sequence from it.
Seq2Seq2014–202213
LSTM recurrent networks
Gated recurrent networks that keep information over long sequences.
—2014–20189
Dilated convolutional sequence models
Model long sequences with stacked dilated 1-D convolutions that run in linear time.
ByteNet2016–20172
WordPiece subword tokens
Split rare words into frequent sub-word pieces so the vocabulary stays small and open.
GNMT2016–20216
Convolutional seq2seq
A fully convolutional encoder–decoder with gated linear units and per-layer attention.
ConvS2S2017–20202
Language-independent subword tokenizer
Train subword models directly on raw text, with no language-specific pre-tokenisation.
