    Adaptive locally connected recurrent unit (ALCRU)
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2025-07-03) Özçelik, Şuayb Talha; Tek, Faik Boray
    Research has shown that adaptive locally connected neurons outperform their fully connected (dense) counterparts, motivating this study on the development of the Adaptive Locally Connected Recurrent Unit (ALCRU). ALCRU modifies the Simple Recurrent Neuron Model (SimpleRNN) by incorporating spatial coordinate spaces for input and hidden state vectors, facilitating the learning of parametric local receptive fields. These modifications add four trainable parameters per neuron, resulting in a minor increase in computational complexity. ALCRU is implemented using standard frameworks and trained with back-propagation-based optimizers. We evaluate the performance of ALCRU using diverse benchmark datasets, including IMDb for sentiment analysis, AdditionRNN for sequence modelling, and the Weather dataset for time-series forecasting. Results show that ALCRU achieves accuracy and loss metrics comparable to GRU and LSTM while consistently outperforming SimpleRNN. In particular, experiments with longer sequence lengths on AdditionRNN and increased input dimensions on IMDb highlight ALCRU’s superior scalability and efficiency in processing complex data sequences. In terms of computational efficiency, ALCRU demonstrates a considerable speed advantage over gated models like LSTM and GRU, though it is slower than SimpleRNN. These findings suggest that adaptive local connectivity enhances both the accuracy and efficiency of recurrent neural networks, offering a promising alternative to standard architectures.

    Integrating the focusing neuron model with N-BEATS and N-HiTS
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2024) Özçelik, Şuayb Talha; Tek, Faik Boray
    The N-BEATS (Neural Basis Expansion Analysis for Time Series) model is a robust deep learning architecture designed specifically for time series forecasting. Its foundational idea lies in the use of a generic, interpretable architecture that leverages backward and forward residual links to predict time series data effectively. N - BEATS influenced the development of N-HiTS (Neural Hierarchical Interpretable Time Series), which builds upon and extends the foundational ideas of N-BEATS. This paper introduces new integrations to enhance these models using the Focusing Neuron model in blocks of N-BEATS and N-HiTS instead of Fully Connected (Dense) Neurons. The integration aims to improve the forward and backward forecasting processes in the blocks by facilitating the learning of parametric local receptive fields. Preliminary results indicate that this new usage can significantly improve model performances on datasets that have longer sequences, providing a promising direction for future advancements in N-BEATS and N-HiTS.
