Time Series Forecasting with Recurrent Neural Networks

In this post, we’ll review three advanced techniques for improving the performance and generalization power of recurrent neural networks. We’ll demonstrate all three concepts on a temperature-forecasting problem, where you have access to a time series of data points coming from sensors installed on the roof of a building
