Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| use multi-resolution dilated recurrent connections instead of regular recurrent connections | Vanilla RNN · Copy memory T=500 and T=1,000 | cross-entropy loss | Helped |
| use dilated Vanilla instead of regular Vanilla | Vanilla RNN · Penn Treebank | BPC | Helped |
| use dilated GRU instead of regular GRU | GRU · Penn Treebank | BPC: 1.33 -> 1.27 | Helped |
| use dilated Vanilla instead of regular skip Vanilla | Vanilla RNN · MNIST unpermuted | test accuracy | Helped |
| use dilated recurrent architecture instead of regular recurrent skips | Vanilla RNN · Noisy MNIST T=1,000 and T=2,000 | test accuracy | Helped |
| use raw-waveform Dilated GRU rather than raw-waveform Fused GRU | GRU · VCTK raw waveform | accuracy: 0.65 -> 0.74 | Helped |
| use dilated GRU rather than GRU | GRU · MNIST unpermuted | test accuracy: 99.1 -> 99.0 / 99.2 | No clear effect |
| increase the number of dilated Vanilla layers (ablation) | Dilated Vanilla · Noisy MNIST T=1,000 | classification accuracy | Helped |
| start dilation above 1 by removing bottom layers (ablation) | Dilated Vanilla · Noisy MNIST T=1,000 | evaluation accuracy | Hurt |
