概要
Long Short Term Memory networks，简称作LSTM。
Recurrent Neural Networks
Recurrent Neural Networks，简称作RNN，其结构包含回环，可以用来解决有信息停留的问题。
其基本机构如下图所示：
如上图所示，神经网络的一块，A，获得输入xt，并产生输出ht。该结构允许把信息传递给下一个时刻。
一个RNN可以看成许多个相同神经网络的复制，一个神经网络把信息传递给下一个神经网络。如果我们把这个回环打开，就变成下图所示的结构：
这种结构自然被用于语音识别（speech recognition），语言建模（ language modeling），翻译（translation），图片抓取（image captioning）等问题中。应用范围还在不断扩展中。
