Sequence Modeling with CTC

Abstract

Distill articles are interactive publications and do not include traditional abstracts. This summary was written for the ML Anthology. Provides a visual guide to Connectionist Temporal Classification (CTC), an algorithm that enables neural networks to learn sequence-to-sequence mappings without aligned training data. Explains how CTC marginalizes over all possible alignments using dynamic programming.
