1. Introduction

In this tutorial, you will learn about long short-term memory networks, or LSTMs for short. LSTMs are a type of recurrent neural network (RNN) that can process sequential data, such as text, speech, or video. LSTMs are especially useful for dealing with the problem of long-term dependencies, which is when the output of a neural network depends on inputs that occurred many time steps ago.

By the end of this tutorial, you will be able to:

  • Explain what are recurrent neural networks and how they work
