Forecasting with MXNet

Time-series forecasting is one of the most popular applications in deep learning. MXNet enables machine learning enthusiasts to utilize its deep learning framework for various applications including time series forecasting. In this recipe, we will implement a one-to-one forecasting solution using an LSTM network to predict shampoo sales. At the time of writing this book, MXNet supported only two variants of the sequence prediction problem, one-to-one and many-to-one.
