WaveNet: A Generative Model for Raw Audio
TLDR
WaveNet, a deep neural network for generating raw audio waveforms, is introduced; it is shown that it can be efficiently trained on data with tens of thousands of samples per second of audio, and can be employed as a discriminative model, returning promising results for phoneme recognition. Expand
Mastering the game of Go with deep neural networks and tree search
TLDR
Using this search algorithm, the program AlphaGo achieved a 99.8% winning rate against other Go programs, and defeated the human European Go champion by 5 games to 0.5, the first time that a computer program has defeated a human professional player in the full-sized game of Go. Expand
A Convolutional Neural Network for Modelling Sentences
TLDR
A convolutional architecture dubbed the Dynamic Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) is described that is adopted for the semantic modelling of sentences and induces a feature graph over the sentence that is capable of explicitly capturing short and long-range relations. Expand
Pixel Recurrent Neural Networks
TLDR
A deep neural network is presented that sequentially predicts the pixels in an image along the two spatial dimensions and encodes the complete set of dependencies in the image to achieve log-likelihood scores on natural images that are considerably better than the previous state of the art. Expand
Conditional Image Generation with PixelCNN Decoders
TLDR
The gated convolutional layers in the proposed model improve the log-likelihood of PixelCNN to match the state-of-the-art performance of PixelRNN on ImageNet, with greatly reduced computational cost. Expand
Parallel WaveNet: Fast High-Fidelity Speech Synthesis
The recently-developed WaveNet architecture is the current state of the art in realistic speech synthesis, consistently rated as more natural sounding for many different languages than any previous… Expand
Recurrent Continuous Translation Models
We introduce a class of probabilistic continuous translation models called Recurrent Continuous Translation Models that are purely based on continuous representations for words, phrases and sentences… Expand
Efficient Neural Audio Synthesis
TLDR
A single-layer recurrent neural network with a dual softmax layer that matches the quality of the state-of-the-art WaveNet model, the WaveRNN, and a new generation scheme based on subscaling that folds a long sequence into a batch of shorter sequences and allows one to generate multiple samples at once. Expand
Grid Long Short-Term Memory
TLDR
The Grid LSTM is used to define a novel two-dimensional translation model, the Reencoder, and it is shown that it outperforms a phrase-based reference system on a Chinese-to-English translation task. Expand
Neural Machine Translation in Linear Time
TLDR
The ByteNet decoder attains state-of-the-art performance on character-level language modelling and outperforms the previous best results obtained with recurrent networks and the latent alignment structure contained in the representations reflects the expected alignment between the tokens. Expand
