Chinese Poetry Generation with a Working Memory Model
Table 3: Comparison of different strategies. GE: genre embedding. TT: Topic Trace mechanism. WM0 is the model without GE or TT.

It is worth mentioning that the improvement partially results from the genre embedding. By incorporating structural and phonological control into the model, WM greatly reduces the uncertainty of generation. As we can see, even without genre embedding, our model still outperforms baselines prominently. Besides, Topic Trace mechanism further improves performance.
