Long Short-Term Memory
This paper addresses the vanishing gradient problem in traditional RNNs, which prevents them from learning long-range dependencies in sequences.
The authors designed a memory cell with input, output, and forget gates that allow the network to store information for long periods and pass gradients effectively.
LSTM outperformed vanilla RNNs on tasks like speech recognition, machine translation, and text generation, successfully modeling long-term dependencies.
LSTM is computationally more expensive than simple RNNs and may still struggle with extremely long sequences; it also requires careful tuning of hyperparameters.
LSTM is widely used in speech recognition (Google Assistant), machine translation, financial time-series forecasting, and robotics for processing motion sensor data and path planning.
