OBJECT RECORD / AIM-DOC-1997-001

Long Short-Term Memory

A journal paper proposes a gated recurrent method intended to keep error signals available across long time intervals.

CURATORIAL READING

Why it is here

Hochreiter and Schmidhuber frame decaying error backflow as an obstacle to learning across long delays, then describe constant error flow through special units controlled by multiplicative gates.

Evidence boundary

The museum checked the official bibliographic record and abstract, not the full paper. This object records the authors’ stated mechanism and artificial long-time-lag experiments; it does not establish a universal solution to memory or describe every later LSTM implementation.
