flax.linen.LSTMCell#
- class flax.linen.LSTMCell(gate_fn=<PjitFunction of <function sigmoid>>, activation_fn=<PjitFunction of <function jax.numpy.tanh>>, kernel_init=<function variance_scaling.<locals>.init>, recurrent_kernel_init=<function orthogonal.<locals>.init>, bias_init=<function zeros>, dtype=None, param_dtype=<class 'jax.numpy.float32'>, parent=<flax.linen.module._Sentinel object>, name=None)[source]#
LSTM cell.
The mathematical definition of the cell is as follows
\[\begin{split}\begin{array}{ll} i = \sigma(W_{ii} x + W_{hi} h + b_{hi}) \\ f = \sigma(W_{if} x + W_{hf} h + b_{hf}) \\ g = \tanh(W_{ig} x + W_{hg} h + b_{hg}) \\ o = \sigma(W_{io} x + W_{ho} h + b_{ho}) \\ c' = f * c + i * g \\ h' = o * \tanh(c') \\ \end{array}\end{split}\]where x is the input, h is the output of the previous time step, and c is the memory.

- __call__(carry, inputs)[source]#
A long short-term memory (LSTM) cell.
- Parameters
carry – the hidden state of the LSTM cell, initialized using LSTMCell.initialize_carry.
inputs – an ndarray with the input for the current time step. All dimensions except the final are considered batch dimensions.
- Returns
A tuple with the new carry and the output.
Methods
initialize_carry
(rng, batch_dims, size[, ...])Initialize the RNN cell carry.
