Encoder-Decoder Architecture

The Encoder-Decoder architecture is a process used in computers to understand and generate data, like translating languages or converting speech. The encoder first examines the input information (like a sentence) and converts it into a condensed representation, capturing its meaning. The decoder then takes this compressed form to produce a desired output (such as translating the sentence into another language). This setup allows systems to efficiently interpret complex data and generate accurate results, making it useful in many applications like translation, captioning, and speech recognition.
