A Neural-based Character-Level Language Model (LM) is a character-level LM that is a neural LM.
- Context:
- It can (typically) be produced by a Neural Character-Level Language Model Training System.
- Example(s):
- an LSTM-based Character-Level Language Model, as by (Karpathy, 2015).
- …
- Counter-Example(s):
- See: Maximum Likelihood-based Character-Level Language Model.

An example RNN with 4-dimensional input and output layers, and a hidden layer of 3 units (neurons). This diagram shows the activations in the forward pass when the RNN is fed the characters "hell" as input. The output layer contains confidences the RNN assigns for the next character (vocabulary is "h,e,l,o"); We want the green numbers to be high and red numbers to be low.
