This document discusses using DL4J and DataVec to build deep learning workflows for modeling time series sensor data with recurrent neural networks. It provides an example of loading and transforming sensor data with DataVec, configuring an RNN with DL4J, and training the model both locally and distributed on Spark. The overall workflow involves extracting, transforming, and loading data with DataVec, vectorizing it, modeling with DL4J, evaluating performance, and deploying trained models for execution on Spark/Hadoop platforms.
