Why not just Feed-forward network?
Output at t
Output at t-1
no relation
Sequence issues w/ Feed-forward NN
-
Classification of movie-scenes.
-
Understanding the context of a book paragraph.
-
Prediction of the next word in a sentence.
-
Time-series forecasting.
RNN comes to the rescue
RNNs
Short term dependency:
E.g. The color of the sky is ___.
Limitations of RNNs
Long term dependency:
E.g. I am from India. I studied in Spain for 5 long years and then I moved to France for work.
.... I can speak fluent _____.
Back-propagation through time
Vanishing Gradient issue
also: Exploding Gradient issue
Solutions
Vanishing Gradient
- LSTM
- GRU
Exploding Gradient
- Gradient Clipping
Long Short-Term Memory
Hochreiter & Schmidhuber (1997)
RNN have single layer structure
Long Short-Term Memory
Hochreiter & Schmidhuber (1997)
LSTM has four layer structure
Cell State
Cell State allows LSTM to remember information
through regulated gates
Element-wise product
Sigmoid layer
Gates are a way to optionally let information through
Gate 1: Forget Gate
Forget Gate regulates what the network "forgets" from the cell state
Gate 2: Input Gate
- Input Gate decides what values to update (sigmoid layer)
- tanh layer creates new "candidate values" to be added to the cell-state (scaled by input gate)
Cell state interaction
The forget gate interacts with the cell state (ft * Ct-1)
The input gate interacts with the cell state (it * Ct)
Gate 3: Output Gate
Output gate decides what will be pushed to the next cell in the sequence from the cell-state
