Variable beam search for generative neural parsing and its relevance for the analysis of neuro-imaging signal

Benoit Crabbé, Murielle Fabre, Christophe Pallier


Abstract
This paper describes a method of variable beam size inference for Recurrent Neural Network Grammar (rnng) by drawing inspiration from sequential Monte-Carlo methods such as particle filtering. The paper studies the relevance of such methods for speeding up the computations of direct generative parsing for rnng. But it also studies the potential cognitive interpretation of the underlying representations built by the search method (beam activity) through analysis of neuro-imaging signal.
