Amateur's introduction to RNN

I write this post to share the slides of my talk on recurrent neural network (RNN), as presented on October 16, 2018, at the Université de Sherbrooke. I am not an expert on this subject, so I encourage you to consult better resources available on the web:

• École IVADO/MILA en apprentissage profond 2018 (French)
• Deep Learing (The book by Goodfellow, Bengio & Courvile)
• The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Recurrent Neural Networks
• Understanding LSTM Networks
• Text generation using deep recurrent neural networks
• The fall of RNN / LSTM
• Attention and Augmented Recurrent Neural Networks
