torchrecurrent.LiGRUCell

class torchrecurrent.LiGRUCell(input_size, hidden_size, bias=True, activation_fn=<built-in method relu of type object>, gate_activation_fn=<built-in method sigmoid of type object>, kernel_init=<function xavier_uniform_>, recurrent_kernel_init=<function xavier_uniform_>, bias_init=<function zeros_>, recurrent_bias_init=<function zeros_>, device=None, dtype=None)

A Light Gated Recurrent Unit (LiGRU) cell.

This variant simplifies the GRU by using a single update gate and a rectified‐linear candidate, updating via:

\[\begin{split}\mathbf{z}(t) &= \sigma\bigl( \mathbf{W}_{ih}^{z}\,\mathbf{x}(t) + \mathbf{b}_{ih}^{z} + \mathbf{W}_{hh}^{z}\,\mathbf{h}(t-1) + \mathbf{b}_{hh}^{z} \bigr), \\[6pt] \tilde{\mathbf{h}}(t) &= \mathrm{ReLU}\bigl( \mathbf{W}_{ih}^{h}\,\mathbf{x}(t) + \mathbf{b}_{ih}^{h} + \mathbf{W}_{hh}^{h}\,\mathbf{h}(t-1) + \mathbf{b}_{hh}^{h} \bigr), \\[6pt] \mathbf{h}(t) &= \mathbf{z}(t)\,\circ\,\mathbf{h}(t-1) \;+\;\bigl(1 - \mathbf{z}(t)\bigr)\,\circ\,\tilde{\mathbf{h}}(t),\end{split}\]

where \(\circ\) denotes element‐wise multiplication.
