Abstract
A system that is configured to receive a sequence of task inputs and to perform a machine learning task is described. The system includes a reinforcement learning (RL) neural network and a task neural network. The RL neural network is configured to: generate, for each task input of the sequence of task inputs, a respective decision that determines whether to encode the task input or to skip the task input, and provide the respective decision of each task input to the task neural network. The task neural network is configured to: receive the sequence of task inputs, receive, from the RL neural network, for each task input of the sequence of task inputs, a respective decision that determines whether to encode the task input or to skip the task input, process each of the un-skipped task inputs in the sequence of task inputs to generate a respective accumulated feature for the un-skipped task input, wherein the respective accumulated feature characterizes features of the un-skipped task input and of previous un-skipped task inputs in the sequence, and generate a machine learning task output for the machine learning task based on the last accumulated feature generated for the last un-sk…
