The main contribution of this paper is the application of RNNs on a hard language tasks, thus showing their potential for language and other sequence tasks. Instead of using the usual Vanilla RNN, or an LSTM they introduce the idea of multiplicative RNNs and tensor RNNs. They find these significantly improve performance on the tasks. They mention that the multiplicative RNNs have some optimization issues which are mediated through the use of second-order optimization techniques.
