Fundamentals of Neural Networks - Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM)

The video tutorial introduces Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) architecture, a key component in modern recurrent neural networks. It explains the basic structure and function of LSTM, including its gates: forget, update, and output. The tutorial delves into the mathematical formulation of these gates and how they contribute to the LSTM's ability to retain information over time. It also covers how LSTM units produce outputs and make predictions using softmax functions. Finally, the video discusses constructing deep LSTM layers for complex neural network architectures.
