In this work, a probabilistic model is established for recurrent networks. The expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm is then applied to derive a new fast training algorithm for recurrent networks through mean-field approximation. This new algorithm converts training a complicated recurrent network into training an array of individual feedforward neurons. These neurons are then trained via a linear weighted regression algorithm. The training time has been improved by five to 15 times on benchmark problems
