 Some of the resources for this lab include [[https://​arxiv.org/​pdf/​1409.3215.pdf|Sequence to Sequence Learning with Neural Networks]] and [[https://​arxiv.org/​pdf/​1409.0473.pdf|D Bahdanau, 2015]]. The former will be of more use in implementing the lab. State of the art NMT systems use Badanau'​s attention mechanism, but context alone should be enough for our dataset. Some of the resources for this lab include [[https://​arxiv.org/​pdf/​1409.3215.pdf|Sequence to Sequence Learning with Neural Networks]] and [[https://​arxiv.org/​pdf/​1409.0473.pdf|D Bahdanau, 2015]].

-Seq2seq and encoder/​decoder are nearly synonymous architectures and represent the first major breakthrough using RNNs to map between source and target sequences of differing lengths. The encoder will map input sequences to a fixed length context vector and the decoder will then map that to the output sequence. ​Standard softmax / cross entropy ​is used on the scores output by the decoder and compared against the reference ​sequence.+Seq2seq and encoder/​decoder are nearly synonymous architectures and represent the first major breakthrough using RNNs to map between source and target sequences of differing lengths.

 +====Pytorch on the supercomputer:​====
 +
 +The folks at the supercomputer center have installed `pytorch` and `torchvision`.
 +To use pytorch, you'll need to use the following modules in your SLURM file:
 +
 +<code bash>
 +    # these are dependencies:​
 +    module load cuda/8.0 cudnn/​6.0_8.0
 +    module load python/27
 +
 +    module load python-pytorch python-torchvision
 +
 +</​code>​
 +
 +If you need more python libraries you can install them to your home directory with:
 +
 +<code bash>
 +    pip install --user libraryname
 +</​code>​
