Temporal Activation Regularization (TAR) is a type of slowness regularization for RNNs that penalizes differences between states that have been explored in the past. Formally we minimize:

βL₂(hₜ - hₜ₊₁)

where L₂ is the L₂ norm, hₜ is the output of the RNN at timestep t, and β is a scaling coefficient.

Papers per year the archive tags with this method, by the paper's archive date (53 dated). Bars are counts, not a trend claim.

Components: the archive holds no method-to-method composition, so PwC's Components table cannot be rebuilt; the Papers list carries no Results column for the same reason (the archive does not join its leaderboard rows to method tags).
