Understanding sequential data

In the world of machine learning, we encounter many types of data, such as images, text, video, and sensor readings. Different types of data require different types of modeling techniques. Sequential data refers to data where the ordering is important. Sequential data can be found in many instances "out in the wild." Here are some examples:

Genomic Sequence Data – This perhaps is the best and most important example we have of sequential data. The sequence in which genes appear is what creates and maintains life at its most basic level. Genomics sequences contain the information that keep us alive.

Human Languages – Order is extremely important when communicating. If we started altering the sequence for the words in this book, it would not take long before the book would become completely incomprehensible!

Computer Languages – In most computer languages, the correct order of inputs is essential for anything...
