Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)


What is a Recurrent Neural Network?

Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are used with data that takes the form of a sequence. Text data is also sequential data. RNNs are used in NLP to aggregate across individual words to create representations for sequences of words like sentences and paragraphs. RNNs process each word individually and can be computationally expensive for long sequences of text.
