Study Notes

Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs)

  • RNNs are a type of artificial neural network designed for sequential data or time series data.
  • They have a "memory" that allows prior inputs to influence current input and output.
  • RNNs are used in applications like Siri, voice search, and Google Translate.

RNNs vs Feedforward Networks (FFNs)

  • RNNs extend FFNs to handle sequential data.
  • RNNs have hidden states, enabling past outputs to serve as inputs.
  • FFNs process all input elements concurrently.

RNN Architecture

  • Consists of three main components: Input Layer, Hidden Layer, and Output Layer.
  • Input Layer receives sequential input at each time step.
  • Hidden Layer processes input and maintains a hidden state, capturing temporal relationships.
  • Hidden state updates at each time step based on current input and prior hidden state.
  • Output Layer produces an output or prediction based on the current hidden state.

RNN Example

  • RNNs process input sequentially (e.g., "hell").
  • Activation and output values calculated at each step.
  • Each step involves a calculated activation and output involving weights (shared).

Different Types of RNNs

  • One-to-One: single input, single output (e.g., image classification).
  • One-to-Many: single input, multiple outputs (e.g., image captioning).
  • Many-to-One: multiple inputs, single output (e.g., sentiment analysis).
  • Many-to-Many: multiple inputs, multiple outputs (e.g., machine translation).

RNN Problems

  • Short-term memory problem: RNNs struggle to memorize long sequences.
  • Information modification: adding new information often overwrites older information in the hidden state.
  • Difficulty distinguishing important information: RNNs may not properly prioritize important information within a sequence.

Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM)

  • Popular RNN architecture designed to overcome vanishing gradient problems.
  • Addresses long-term dependencies in sequential data using "cells."
  • Includes input, output, and forget gates to control information flow.

Gated Recurrent Units (GRUs)

  • Alternative RNN architecture similar to LSTMs.
  • Uses a hidden state to transfer information.
  • Employs reset and update gates.
  • These gates decide which information is retained from prior time steps, forgotten, and new information included for future predictions.

Applications of RNNs

  • Natural Language Processing (NLP): machine translation, sentiment analysis, text generation.
  • Speech Recognition: phoneme recognition, speech-to-text.
  • Time Series Analysis: stock prediction, weather forecasting, energy load prediction.

  • Trained competitively: each model learns to improve by challenging the other.

GAN Architecture

  • Input vector from the latent space is used to generate synthetic data.
  • Generator produces synthetic data that is used to update the discriminator.
  • Discriminator acts as a binary classifier to distinguish real and synthetic data, helping to update generator.

GAN Training

  • Generator and discriminator are initialized with weights.
  • Generator generates synthetic data, targeting to fool the discriminator.
  • Discriminator assesses authenticity and identifies synthetic samples.
  • Training process continues, updating weights and improving the performance of both models.

GAN Applications

  • Image generation/synthesis (e.g., creating realistic images)
