Doubt in RNN Quiz

I’ve doubt on this question


I guess 2nd option is correct bcoz time is given T and not t

Another Doubt I’ve on this :


Options 1 & 2 should be correct according to me.
How the ans is All…?

please help

  1. I have edited the question, it was supposed to ask for the tth time step.

  2. A tth state vector would also depend on the y that that particular cell outputs, that’s what the concept of RNN says, the activation output from a particular cell contains within itself all the previous outputs from the RNN cells and the one from the present time step as well. Hence, option 3 would be correct too.
    The 4th option was supposed to be a< 1 >, it was a typing mistake from our side which has been edited now. I hope you understand why that would be correct too.
    Hence, the answer would be ‘All of the above’

I still doubt on this @rachitbansal2500
any cell at time t has 2 inputs only a<t-1> , x<t> which outputs a<t> . It means for a<t> we need 2 things only.
But at time t for output y<t> we need 3 things : a<t-1> , x<t> , a<t>.
But here question is asking about a<t> so i guess 2 options are correct.
At any time t, how can a<t> be input to itself, coz it is the activation output at time t , so a<t> cant be dependent on a<t>

As it’s visible, the y from a RNN cell plays a role in forming the final activation output from that cell, which also logically evident- consider the ‘y’ term to be a term representing an output from one cell while the activation output represents a collective output from that cell and all the previous cells that have been passed by so far.

Yes, as I mentioned in my previous option that option had to be a<1> and not a<t>, it was a typing mistake previously and has been corrected now.

  1. so, for activation of any cell, we put y value of that cell input as well.?
  2. I was thinking vice versa that for y value of any cell we need to input activation of that cell…

that’s why i had written this earlier

so the first statement is correct right,?? then I got your point…

Yes, the first statement is correct
