It can be hard to prepare data when you’re just getting started with deep learning. Long Short-Term Memory, or LSTM, recurrent neural networks expect three-dimensional input in the Keras Python deep learning library. If you have a long sequence of thousands of observations in your time series data, you must split your time series into […]
It can be difficult to understand how to prepare your sequence data for input to an LSTM model. Often there is confusion around how to define the input layer for the LSTM model. There is also confusion about how to convert your sequence data that may be a 1D or 2D matrix of numbers to […]
The Long Short-Term Memory recurrent neural network was developed for sequence prediction. In addition to sequence prediction problems. LSTMs can also be used as a generative model In this post, you will discover how LSTMs can be used as generative models. After completing this post, you will know: About generative models, with a focus on […]
Gentle introduction to the Encoder-Decoder LSTMs for sequence-to-sequence prediction with example Python code. The Encoder-Decoder LSTM is a recurrent neural network designed to address sequence-to-sequence problems, sometimes called seq2seq. Sequence-to-sequence prediction problems are challenging because the number of items in the input and output sequences can vary. For example, text translation and learning to execute […]
Gentle introduction to CNN LSTM recurrent neural networks with example Python code. Input with spatial structure, like images, cannot be modeled easily with the standard Vanilla LSTM. The CNN Long Short-Term Memory Network or CNN LSTM for short is an LSTM architecture specifically designed for sequence prediction problems with spatial inputs, like images or videos. […]
Gentle introduction to the Stacked LSTM with example code in Python. The original LSTM model is comprised of a single hidden LSTM layer followed by a standard feedforward output layer. The Stacked LSTM is an extension to this model that has multiple hidden LSTM layers where each layer contains multiple memory cells. In this post, […]
Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) recurrent neural networks are one of the most interesting types of deep learning at the moment. They have been used to demonstrate world-class results in complex problem domains such as language translation, automatic image captioning, and text generation. LSTMs are different to multilayer Perceptrons and convolutional neural networks in that they […]
Long Short-Term Memory Networks With Python Develop Deep Learning Models for your Sequence Prediction Problems Sequence Prediction is…important, overlooked, and HARD Sequence prediction is different to other types of supervised learning problems. The sequence imposes an order on the observations that must be preserved when training models and making predictions. There are 4 main types of […]
The data for your sequence prediction problem probably needs to be scaled when training a neural network, such as a Long Short-Term Memory recurrent neural network. When a network is fit on unscaled data that has a range of values (e.g. quantities in the 10s to 100s) it is possible for large inputs to slow […]
The Encoder-Decoder architecture is popular because it has demonstrated state-of-the-art results across a range of domains. A limitation of the architecture is that it encodes the input sequence to a fixed length internal representation. This imposes limits on the length of input sequences that can be reasonably learned and results in worse performance for very […]
