In 2016 my team from Salesforce Research published our work on the Quasi-Recurrent Neural Network[1] (QRNN). The QRNN variants we describe are near identical (minGRU) or highly similar (minLSTM) to the work here. The QRNN was used, many years ago now, in the first version of Baidu&amp;#x27;s speech recognition system (Deep Voice [6]) and as part of Google&amp;#x27;s handwriting recognition system in Gboard[5] (2019). Even if there are expressivity trade-offs when using parallelizable RNNs they&amp;#x27;ve shown historically they can work…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1709.02755/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
