!!! Overview [{$pagename}] ([LSTM]) is a [Artificial Neural network] that is a special kind of [Recurrent Neural network], capable of [Machine Learning] long-term dependencies. They were introduced by Hochreiter & Schmidhuber ([1997|Year 1997]), and were refined and popularized by many people in following work. [{$pagename}]s work tremendously well on a large variety of problems, and are now widely used. [{$pagename}]s are explicitly designed to avoid the long-term [dependency] problem. Remembering information for long periods of time is practically their default behavior, not something they struggle to learn! All [Recurrent Neural networks] have the form of a chain of repeating modules of neural network. In standard [RNNs], this repeating module will have a very simple structure, such as a single tanh layer. !!
