Hi DeepLearning Community.
I am little confused about the output of the embedding layer for the padding token. So my question is as follow:
What is the ouput of padding token passed through embedding layer if the option mask_zero is set to False ? because if we don’t mask the padding token. this will affect the following RNN layer.
Thanks

mask_zero = False is the default. You can create a model that spits out the embedding and see for yourself.
There’s no need to interpret the meaning of embedding.
