Query: Subregular Complexity and Deep Learning   This paper argues that the judicial use of formal language theory and
grammatical inference are invaluable tools in understanding how deep neural
networks can and cannot represent and learn long-term dependencies in temporal
sequences. Learning experiments were conducted with two types of Recurrent
Neural Networks (RNNs) on six formal languages drawn from the Strictly Local
(SL) and Strictly Piecewise (SP) classes. The networks were Simple RNNs
(s-RNNs) and Long Short-Term Memory RNNs (LSTMs) of varying sizes. The SL and
SP classes are among the simplest in a mathematically well-understood hierarchy
of subregular classes. They encode local and long-term dependencies,
respectively. The grammatical inference algorithm Regular Positive and Negative
Inference (RPNI) provided a baseline. According to earlier research, the LSTM
architecture should be capable of learning long-term dependencies and should
outperform s-RNNs. The results of these experiments challenge this narrative.
First, the LSTMs' performance was generally worse in the SP experiments than in
the SL ones. Second, the s-RNNs out-performed the LSTMs on the most complex SP
experiment and performed comparably to them on the others.
