R · What Makes It Special
Recurrent neural network language model (RNNLM): Mikolov, Karafiát, Burget and Černocký (Brno University of Technology) with Khudanpur (Johns Hopkins) showed at Interspeech 2010 that recurrent-network LMs, which carry context in a hidden state, beat n-gram models: a mixture of them cut perplexity by about 50% versus a state-of-the-art backoff model, and word error rate fell about 18% on the Wall Street Journal task.
