COVER // WHAT IS THE VANISHING GRADIENT PROBLEM AND HOW DO MODERN ARCHITECTURES SOLVE IT?

During backpropagation in deep networks gradients shrink exponentially as they propagate backward through many layers making early layers learn very slowly or not at all. Solutions include ReLU activations batch normalization residual connections and careful weight initialization.
