Chapter 11

Introducing Recurrent Neural Networks

IN THIS CHAPTER

Understanding the importance of learning data in sequence

Creating image captions and translating languages using deep learning

Discovering the long short-term memory (LSTM) technology

Knowing about possible alternatives to LSTM

This chapter explores how deep learning can deal with information that flows. Reality is not simply changeable, but is changeable in a progressive way that is made predictable by observing the past. If a picture is a static snapshot of a moment in time, a video, consisting of a sequence of related images, is flowing information, and a film can tell you much more than a single photo or a series of photos can. Likewise for short and long textual data (from tweets to entire documents or books) and for all numeric series that represent something occurring along a timeline (for instance, a series the about sales of a product or the quality of the air by day in a city).

This chapter explains a series of new layers, the recurrent networks, and all their improvements, such as the LSTM and GRU layers. ...

Julian F.

Head of Cybersecurity

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

Addison B.

Field Engineer

I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.

Amir M.

Data Platform Tech Lead

I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
