keras.layers.recurrent.LSTM(units, activation='tanh', recurrent_activation='hard_sigmoid', use_bias=True, kernel_initializer='glorot_uniform', recurrent_initializer='orthogonal', bias_initializer='zeros', unit_forget_bias=True, kernel_regularizer=None, recurrent_regularizer=None, bias_regularizer=None, activity_regularizer=None, kernel_constraint=None, recurrent_constraint=None, bias_constraint=None, dropout=0.0, recurrent_dropout=0.0)

model = Sequential()

model.add(LSTM(32, return_sequences=True, stateful=True,batch_input_shape=(batch_size, timesteps, data_dim)))
model.add(LSTM(32, return_sequences=True, stateful=True))
model.add(LSTM(32, stateful=True))
model.add(Dense(num_classes, activation='softmax'))

类似上述代码中，加重黑色数字的含义。

下图是加了peephole的lstm，用来示例，lstm则需要去掉C_t-1和C_t项。可以看到LSTM里面有几个参数矩阵，Wf、Wi、Wo都是参数矩阵。我的理解，上面的数字32就是这个参数矩阵的组数。比如初始一组参数矩阵，Wf、Wi、Wo，计算一个lstm值，然后再给一组参数矩阵Wf1、Wi1、Wo1，可以再算一个lstm值，共32组。参考的博客里第一个也是类似的解释。
