Deep Learning with TensorFlow

LSTM networks

Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) is a special Recurrent Neural Network architecture, which was originally conceived by Hochreiter and Schmidhuber in 1997. This type of neural network has been recently rediscovered in the context of deep learning, because it is free from the problem of vanishing gradients, and offers excellent results and performance. The networks that are LSTM-based are ideal for prediction and classification of temporal sequences, and are replacing many traditional approaches to deep learning.

LSTM is a network that is composed of cells (LSTM blocks) linked to each other. Each LSTM block contains three types of gate: Input gate, Output gate, and Forget gate, respectively, which implement the functions of writing, ...
