+This configuration is a demonstration of how to implement the stacked LSTM
+with residual connections, i.e. an LSTM layer takes the sum of the hidden states
+and inputs of the previous LSTM layer instead of only the hidden states.
+This architecture is from:

+Machine Translation. In arXiv https://arxiv.org/pdf/1609.08144v2.pdf
+Different from the architecture described in the paper, we use a stack single
+direction LSTM layers as the first layer instead of bi-directional LSTM. Also,
+since this is a demo code, to reduce computation time, we stacked 4 layers
+instead of 8 layers.
