对连续时间上的离散事件进行建模，一直是一个非常重要的研究方向：发现事件中广泛而复杂的影响关系，可以帮助我们准确地预测未来事件的类型和发生时间。在这篇NIPS文章中，作者设计了一个基于神经网络的点过程模型，并通过一个continuous-time LSTM增强了该模型在连续时间上的表达和泛化能力。实验结果充分证实了所提出的模型的良好性能。

Many events occur in the world. Some event types are stochastically excited or inhibited---in the sense of having their probabilities elevated or decreased---by patterns in the sequence of previous events. Discovering such patterns can help us predict which type of event will happen next and when. We propose to model streams of discrete events in continuous time, by constructing a neurally self-modulating multivariate point process in which the intensities of multiple event types evolve according to a novel continuous-time LSTM. This generative model allows past events to influence the future in complex and realistic ways, by conditioning future event intensities on the hidden state of a recurrent neural network that has consumed the stream of past events. Our model has desirable qualitative properties. It achieves competitive likelihood and predictive accuracy on real and synthetic datasets, including under missing-data conditions.
