#### Convolutional Neural Networks for Texts (CNN)
**Convolutional Neural Networks** are frequently applied to data with grid-like topology such as two-dimensional images and one-dimensional texts. A CNN can extract multiple local features, combine them, and produce high-level abstractions, which correspond to semantic understanding. Empirically, CNN is shown to be efficient for image and text modeling.
CNN mainly contains convolution and pooling operation, with versatile combinations in various applications. Here, we briefly describe a CNN as shown in Figure 3.
Let $n$ be the length of the sentence to process, and the $i$-th word has embedding as $x_i\in\mathbb{R}^k$，where $k$ is the embedding dimensionality.
First, we concatenate the words by piecing together every $h$ words, each as a window of length $h$. This window is denoted as $x_{i:i+h-1}$, consisting of $x_{i},x_{i+1},\ldots,x_{i+h-1}$, where $x_i$ is the first word in the window and $i$ takes value ranging from $1$ to $n-h+1$: $x_{i:i+h-1}\in\mathbb{R}^{hk}$.
Next, we apply the convolution operation: we apply the kernel $w\in\mathbb{R}^{hk}$ in each window, extracting features $c_i=f(w\cdot x_{i:i+h-1}+b)$, where $b\in\mathbb{R}$ is the bias and $f$ is a non-linear activation function such as $sigmoid$. Convolving by the kernel at every window ${x_{1:h},x_{2:h+1},\ldots,x_{n-h+1:n}}$ produces a feature map in the following form:
$$c=[c_1,c_2,\ldots,c_{n-h+1}], c \in \mathbb{R}^{n-h+1}$$
Next, we apply *max pooling* over time to represent the whole sentence $\hat c$, which is the maximum element across the feature map:
$$\hat c=max(c)$$
#### Model Structure Of The Hybrid Model
In our network, the input includes features of users and movies. The user feature includes four properties: user ID, gender, occupation, and age. Movie features include their IDs, genres, and titles.
We use fully-connected layers to map user features into representative feature vectors and concatenate them. The process of movie features is similar, except that for movie titles -- we feed titles into a text convolution network as described in the [sentiment analysis tutorial](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/book/blob/develop/understand_sentiment/README.md)）to get a fixed-length representative feature vector.

For vanilla LSTM, $h_t$ contains input information from previous time-step $1..t-1$ context. We can also apply an RNN with reverse-direction to take successive context $t+1…n$ into consideration. Combining constructing deep RNN (deeper RNN can contain more abstract and higher level semantic), we can design structures with deep stacked bidirectional LSTM to model sequential data\[[9](#Reference)\].
As shown in Figure 4 (3-layer RNN), odd/even layers are forward/reverse LSTM. Higher layers of LSTM take lower-layers LSTM as input, and the top-layer LSTM produces a fixed length vector by max-pooling (this representation considers contexts from previous and successive words for higher-level abstractions). Finally, we concatenate the output to a softmax layer for classification.

对卷积神经网络来说，首先使用卷积处理输入的词向量序列，产生一个特征图（feature map），对特征图采用时间维度上的最大池化（max pooling over time）操作得到此卷积核对应的整句话的特征，最后，将所有卷积核得到的特征拼接起来即为文本的定长向量表示，对于文本分类问题，将其连接至softmax即构建出完整的模型。在实际应用中，我们会使用多个卷积核来处理句子，窗口大小相同的卷积核堆叠起来形成一个矩阵，这样可以更高效的完成运算。另外，我们也可使用窗口大小不同的卷积核来处理句子，[推荐系统](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/book/tree/develop/05.recommender_system)一节的图3作为示意画了四个卷积核，不同颜色表示不同大小的卷积核操作。
LSTM通过给简单的循环神经网络增加记忆及控制门的方式，增强了其处理远距离依赖问题的能力。类似原理的改进还有Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU)\[[8](#参考文献)\]，其设计更为简洁一些。**这些改进虽然各有不同，但是它们的宏观描述却与简单的循环神经网络一样（如图2所示），即隐状态依据当前输入及前一时刻的隐状态来改变，不断地循环这一过程直至输入处理完毕：**
