a simple rnn

#recurrent-net-version-1.1

Simplest bi-directional recurrent neural network (C++ / OpenCV).

To run this code, you should have

• OpenCV.

##Compile & Run

• Compile by running:

cmake .
make

• Run:

./rnn

##Structure and Algorithm See my tech-blog.

##TODO New post for bi-directional rnn...

##Config Files

####General Parameters Config

• gradient checking (automatically disable dropout, and use tiny dataset)
• store parameters into log file (for debugging, should be faster if not using it)
• batch size
• non-linearity method (sigmoid, tanh, ReLU)
• training epochs
• iteration per epoch
• learning rate
• ngram
• training percent (for cross validation)

####Layers Config

• layer type
• amount of hidden neurons
• dropout rate
• weight decay
• amount of output classes (in Softmax Layer, initialized to be 0, because it depends on dataset)

####Multi-Layer This network supports multiple hidden layers.
