Torch recurrent neural networks

This is a recurrent neural network (RNN) library that extends Torch's nn. You can use it to build RNNs, LSTMs, GRUs, BRNNs, BLSTMs, and so forth and so on.

This library includes documentation for the following objects :

• Recurrent modules consider successive calls to forward as different time-steps in a sequence.
• Sequencer modules forward entire sequences through a decorated AbstractRecurrent instance.
• Sequencer criterion handle input and target sequences.
• Miscellaneous modules and criterions for things like noise contrastive estimation (NCE) and zero-masking.
• Reinforce modules and criterions implement the REINFORCE learning rule.

Citation

If you use rnn in your work, we'd really appreciate it if you could cite the following paper:

Léonard, Nicholas, Sagar Waghmare, Yang Wang, and Jin-Hwa Kim. rnn: Recurrent Library for Torch. arXiv preprint arXiv:1511.07889 (2015).

Any significant contributor to the library will also get added as an author to the paper. A significant contributor is anyone who added at least 300 lines of code to the library.

Troubleshooting

Most issues can be resolved by updating the various dependencies:

luarocks install torch
luarocks install nn
luarocks install torchx
luarocks install dataload

If you are using CUDA :

luarocks install cutorch
luarocks install cunn

And don't forget to update this package :

luarocks install rnn

If that doesn't fix it, open an issue on github.
