Examples of applications for RNNs include the text autocomplete feature on your phone and performing language translations. </p> <p>Recurrent Neurons (RNs) act as the building blocks of RNNs. The difference between RNs and feed forward neurons is that RNs accept input x, at time t, as well as a hidden state or output from time t-1 from another RN. The output of a RN is a vector, unlike for a feed forward neuron. RNNs are trained (i.e. their weights are calculated) using backpropagation via Gradient Descent Optimization in time. Output from a single RNN layer at time instance,t is an input to the next layer. Each layer in the RNN represents an instance in time. </p>
