A Practical Approach to Timeseries Forecasting Using Python - BiLSTM Models

The video tutorial explains bidirectional LSTMs, which combine two LSTMs to process sequences in both directions, preserving information from past and future. It highlights their advantages, such as solving fixed sequence prediction, and disadvantages, like computational expense. The tutorial demonstrates a basic Python implementation and discusses stacking multiple layers. It concludes with a brief introduction to Drus architectures.
