UNLOCKING RNN, Layer Normalization, and LSTMs – Mastering the Depth of RNNs in Deep Learning – Part 8 of RNN Series by INGOAMPT – Day 62

A Deep Dive into Recurrent Neural Networks, Layer Normalization, and LSTMs So far we have explained in pervious days articles a lot about RNN. We have explained, Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) are a cornerstone in handling sequential data, ranging from time series analysis to natural language processing. However, training RNNs comes with challenges, particularly when dealing with long sequences and issues like unstable gradients. This post will cover how Layer Normalization (LN) addresses these challenges and how Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks provide a more robust solution to memory retention in sequence models. The Challenges of RNNs: Long Sequences and...

Step-by-Step Explanation of RNN for Time Series Forecasting – part 6 – day 60

Step-by-Step Explanation of RNN for Time Series Forecasting Step 1: Simple RNN for Univariate Time Series Forecasting Explanation: An RNN processes sequences of data, where the output at any time step depends on both the current input and the hidden state (which stores information about previous inputs). In this case, we use a Simple RNN with only one recurrent neuron. TensorFlow Code: Numerical Example: Let’s say we have a sequence of three time steps: . 1. Input and Hidden State Initialization: The RNN starts with an initial hidden state , typically initialized to 0. Each step processes the input and...

To learn what is RNN (Recurrent Neural Networks ) why not understand ARIMA, SARIMA first ? – RNN Learning – Part 5 – day 59

A Deep Dive into ARIMA, SARIMA, and Their Relationship with Deep Learning for Time Series Forecasting In recent years, deep learning has become a dominant force in many areas of data analysis, and time series forecasting is no exception. Traditional models like ARIMA (Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average) and its seasonal extension SARIMA have long been the go-to solutions for forecasting time-dependent data. However, newer models based on Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), particularly Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks, have emerged as powerful alternatives. Both approaches have their strengths and applications, and understanding their relationship helps in choosing the right tool for...

Time Series Forecasting with Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) – part 3 – day 57

Time Series Forecasting with Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs): A Complete Guide Introduction Time series data is all around us: from stock prices and weather patterns to daily ridership on public transport systems. Accurately forecasting future values in a time series is a challenging task, but Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) have proven to be highly effective at this. In this article, we will explore how RNNs can be applied to time series forecasting, explain the key concepts behind them, and demonstrate how to clean, prepare, and visualize time series data before feeding it into an RNN. What Is a Recurrent Neural...

Understanding Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) – part 2 – Day 56

Understanding Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) are a class of neural networks that excel in handling sequential data, such as time series, text, and speech. Unlike traditional feedforward networks, RNNs have the ability to retain information from previous inputs and use it to influence the current output, making them extremely powerful for tasks where the order of the input data matters. In day 55 article we have introduced  RNN. In this article, we will explore the inner workings of RNNs, break down their key components, and understand how they process sequences of data through time. We’ll also...

Mastering the Mathematics Behind CNN or Convolutional Neural Networks in Deep Learning – Day 54

You have seen what CNNs are in our previous article. [View Article] Now, let’s explore the mathematics behind CNNs in detail, step by step, with a very simple example. Part 1: Input Layer, Convolution, and Pooling (Steps 1-4) Step 1: Input Layer We are processing two 3×3 grayscale images—one representing a zebra and one representing a cat. Image 1: Zebra Image (e.g., with stripe-like patterns) Image 2: Cat Image (e.g., with smoother, fur-like textures) These images are represented as 2D grids of pixel values, with each value between 0 and 1 indicating pixel intensity. Step 2: Convolutional Layer (Feature Extraction)...
