These new tagging algorithms are based on recurrent and deep neural networks, and their performance is evaluated in simulated collision events. These developments yield considerable improvements over previous jet-flavour identification strategies. At the 77% <jats:italic>b</jats:italic>-jet identification efficiency operating point, light-jet (charm-jet) rejection factors of 170 (5) are achieved in a sample of simulated Standard Model <jats:inline-formula><jats:alternatives><jats:tex-math>$$t\bar{t}$$</jats:tex-math><mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mi>t</mml:mi> <mml:mover> <mml:mrow> <mml:mi>t</mml:mi> </mml:mrow> <mml:mrow> <mml:mo>¯</mml:mo> </mml:mrow> </mml:mover> </mml:mrow> </mml:math></jats:alternatives></jats:inline-formula> events; similarly, at a <jats:italic>c</jats:italic>-jet identification efficiency of 30%, a light-jet (<jats:italic>b</jats:italic>-jet) rejection factor of 70 (9) is obtained.</jats:p>
