Variants of combinations of additive and multiplicative updates for GRU neural networks

In this paper, we formulate several variants of the mixture of both the additive and multiplicative updates using stochastic gradient descent (SGD) and exponential gradient (EG) algorithms respectively. We employ these updates on the gated recurrent unit (GRU) networks. We then derive the gradient-based updates for the parameters of the GRU networks. We propose four different updates as a mean, minimum, even-odd and balanced set of updates for...
