Despite its popularity, the challenge of effectively initializing and optimizing RNN-LSTM models persists, often hindering their performance and accuracy. This study presents a systematic literature review (SLR) using an in-depth four-step approach based on the PRISMA methodology, incorporating peer-reviewed articles spanning 2018�2023. It aims to address how weight initialization and optimization techniques can bolster RNN-LSTM performance. This SLR offers a detailed overview across various applications and domains, and stands out by comprehensively analyzing modeling techniques, datasets, evaluation metrics, and programming languages associated with these networks. The findings of this SLR provide a roadmap for researchers and practitioners to enhance RNN-LSTM networks and achieve superior results. © 2024 The Author(s) date: 2024 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85193947329&doi=10.1016%2fj.jksuci.2024.102068&partnerID=40&md5=2c87f8f56c9f765c907d979bbf351dc7 id_number: 10.1016/j.jksuci.2024.102068 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of King Saud University - Computer and Information Sciences volume: 36 number: 5 refereed: TRUE citation: Al-Selwi, S.M. and Hassan, M.F. and Abdulkadir, S.J. and Muneer, A. and Sumiea, E.H. and Alqushaibi, A. and Ragab, M.G.
