A guide to recurrent neural networks and backpropagation
Mikael Bodén · 2001
This paper provides guidance to some of the concepts surrounding recurrent neural networks. Contrary to feedforward networks, recurrent networks can be sensitive, and be adapted to past inputs. Backpropagation learning is described for feedforward networks, adapted to suit our (probabilistic) modeling needs, and extended to cover recurrent networks. The aim of this brief paper is to set the scene for applying and understanding recurrent neural networks.
