# Recurrent Neural Network **Domain:** Machine Learning / Sequence Modeling **Doc Type:** Technical Concept Node **Maturity:** Foundational ## Definition A **recurrent neural network** contains feedback connections through which prior network state can influence later computation. This gives the system a dynamic memory of sequence or context. ## Historical Context [[wiki/Shun-Ichi Amari|Shun-Ichi Amari]] published learning in recurrent networks in 1972. Related recurrent architectures later became central to [[wiki/Associative Memory|associative memory]] and sequence modeling. ## See Also [[wiki/Artificial Neural Networks|Artificial Neural Networks]], [[wiki/Hopfield Network|Hopfield Network]], [[wiki/Deep Learning|Deep Learning]] <!-- BEGIN CONSCIOUSNESS MAPPING TRANSFER RELATIONSHIP GRAPH 2026-09-10 --> ## Relationships ### Consciousness mapping and transfer graph patch — 2026-09-10 **Resolved aliases:** `recurrent neural network` **Collections:** [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]] · [[collections/Consciousness Continuity|Consciousness Continuity]] **Relationship source:** [[research/Consciousness Mapping and Transfer Ecosystem Relationship Graph - 2026-09-10|Consciousness Mapping and Transfer Ecosystem Relationship Graph — 2026-09-10]] **Related source articles:** [[articles/Technologies for Consciousness Mapping and Transfer|Technologies for Consciousness Mapping and Transfer]] · [[articles/The Architecture of Continuity and Emerging Neuroinformatics Standards|The Architecture of Continuity and Emerging Neuroinformatics Standards]] · [[articles/2026 Annual Report on Brain-Computer Interfaces|2026 Annual Report on Brain-Computer Interfaces]] · [[articles/The Organic-Synthetic Brain Atlas|The Organic-Synthetic Brain Atlas]] #### Incoming typed edges - **Edge 723 — [[wiki/cursor decoder|cursor decoder]] `architecture` → this entry** — **VERIFIED_PEER_REVIEWED**; evidence `BRAINGATE_HOME_NATURE`. #### Epistemic boundary Evidence status and relationship type are recorded on each typed edge. <!-- END CONSCIOUSNESS MAPPING TRANSFER RELATIONSHIP GRAPH 2026-09-10 -->
