Concat order issue?

[science-dojo]

Nice work!
The version of implementation can reach 22+ BLUE score. However, my implementation have only 0.16+ BLUE score on test dataset. Comparing with your work, I found changing the concatenation torch.cat((Y_t, o_pre), dim=1) to torch.cat((o_pre, Y_t), dim=1) can only reach 0.16+ BLUE score.

B.W.T. chaging the concatenating order between dec_hidden and a_t in step function also resulting in bad BLUE score in test dataset.

Would you like share your ideas why concatenating Y_t and o_pre in such way?

Thank you!

I'm sorry for the response after so long time. It's a very interesting question and exploration.

My intuition is that the way matrics concats is same, the difference is just the order between Y_t and o_pre. In other words, you can consider the order of weights of Y_t and o_pre exchanges(of course they still exist in the same weight matrix). I didn't think so much when I finish the network because I just follow the handout. so your case confused me and I am trying to work it out now.

I'll reply to you as soon as possible.

It's tested in (Y_t, o_prev) order.
