NLP - Sequence Models for NLP

AAdd an Embedding layer to convert words into dense vectors before the LSTM.

BUse a Dense layer directly on raw text input before LSTM.

CApply a Conv2D layer to the text input before LSTM.

DSkip preprocessing and feed raw text strings directly to LSTM.

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand preprocessing for text in LSTM models
Embedding layers convert words into meaningful numeric vectors, helping LSTM understand word relationships.
Step 2: Evaluate other options
Dense layers expect numeric input, not raw text. Conv2D is for images. Feeding raw strings to LSTM causes errors.
Final Answer:
Add an Embedding layer to convert words into dense vectors before the LSTM. -> Option A
Quick Check:
Embedding before LSTM = C [OK]

Quick Trick: Use Embedding layer to convert words before LSTM [OK]

Common Mistakes:

MISTAKES

Feeding raw text directly to LSTM
Using Dense or Conv2D layers on raw text
Skipping word vector conversion
