GRU: A Leaner Alternative

Fewer gates, comparable power.

A Simpler Gated Cell

The GRU is a leaner cousin of the LSTM. It chases the same goal, long memory, but with fewer gates and fewer parameters. ⚡

No Separate Cell State

Unlike the LSTM, a GRU has no separate cell state. It keeps everything in a single hidden state that it updates each step.
