Hi, I am reading rnn-grad-deriv.pdf( which is a greate tutorial BTW!). Everything else looks fine but I am confused with those 'sigma' (I assume) symbol in formula 12b. Specifically, they are :

So can you give me some clue what are they meaning and what do they come from?

Hi Interfish, those are "delta" symbols, representing a Kronecker delta. Their value is 0 unless their two indices are identical. They come from taking derivative of V_{lm} with respect to V_{ij}.

Thanks for the feedback, and let me know if there are any other questions!
