GRU
A simpler cousin of the LSTM with fewer gates. It also helps an RNN remember across long sequences.

Recurrent networks · Process sequences step by step, and their limits. About 40 minutes.
Other terms from the same lesson
- hidden state: An RNN's running memory: a list of numbers it updates after each word and passes on to the next step.
- LSTM: An RNN with gates that decide what to keep, forget and output, so it can carry information across many more steps.
- RNN: A network that reads a sequence one step at a time, carrying a memory forward.
