num_layers is discussed here. I can vaguely understand what it is. But my understanding of the details is still fuzzy, because the standard LSTM is only a single layer.

  
    
    
    What is num_layers in RNN module? 
  
  
    Hi, I am not sure about num_layers in RNN module. To be clarify, could you check whether my understanding is right or not. I uploaded an image when num_layers==2. In my understanding, num_layers is similar to CNN’s out_channels. It is just a RNN layer with different filters (So we can train different weights variable for outputting h ). Right?

I am probably right… 
class TestLSTM(nn.Module):
    def __init__(self, input_size, hidden_size, num_layers):
        super(TestLSTM, self).__in…

Can somebody draw an image of a multiple layer LSTM using the same notation used in this LSTM image?

Can num_layers > 1 LSTM be implemented with multiple num_layers = 1 LSTM? If so, can you provide a minimal working example for it? Thanks.
