// MODEL OPTIMIZATION AND PROMPT SYNTAX TERM

LSTM

LSTM stands for Long Short-Term Memory, a special type of recurrent neural network designed to remember information for long periods, which is useful for sequences like sentences.

TECHNICAL DEFINITION

A type of Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) architecture specifically designed to learn long-term dependencies in sequential data by employing memory cells and gating mechanisms (input, forget, output gates) to control the flow of information, mitigating the vanishing gradient problem.

BACKGROUND

A large language model (LLM) is a neural network trained on a vast amount of text for natural language processing tasks, especially language generation. LLMs can typically generate, summarize, translate and analyze text in many contexts, and are a foundational technology behind modern chatbots. Biased or inaccurate training data can make an LLM's output less reliable.
