...SRU is designed to provide expressive recurrence, enable highly parallelized implementation, and comes with careful initialization to facilitate the training of deep models. We demonstrate the effectiveness of SRU on multiple NLP tasks. SRU achieves 5--9x speed-up over cuDNN-optimized LSTM on classification and question answering datasets, and delivers stronger results than LSTM and convolutional models. We also obtain an average of 0.7 BLEU improvement over the Transformer model on the translation by incorporating SRU into the architecture. The experimental code and SRU++ implementation are available on the dev branch which will be merged into master later.
