# This is a simplified implementation of the LSTM language model (by Graham Neubig)
#
#  LSTM Neural Networks for Language Modeling
#  Martin Sundermeyer, Ralf Schlüter, Hermann Ney
#  InterSpeech 2012
# 
# The structure of the model is extremely simple. At every time step we
# read in the one-hot vector for the previous word, and predict the next word.
# Most of the learning code is based on the full-gradient update for LSTMs
#
#  Framewise Phoneme Classification with Bidirectional LSTM and Other Neural Network Architectures
#  Alex Graves and Jurgen Schmidhuber
#  Neural Networks 2005
#
# Note that this code is optimized for simplicity, not speed or accuracy, so it will
# be slow, and not necessarily get excellent performance. Also, it has not been checked all that
# carefully, but the likelihood does seem to be going down, so it's probably ok?
