Sequences and Language | mysimulator.uk

From RNNs to Transformers

Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) were a long-standing standard, but their sequential nature limited parallel processing.

Attention mechanisms allow each token to focus on relevant positions throughout the entire sequence.

RNN/LSTM/GRU Models Temporal Dependencies, But Suffer from Long Contexts

Transformers utilize multi-head attention and positional encoding for parallel processing of sequences. Key blocks include self-attention, feed-forward networks, LayerNorm, and residual connections.

Architectural variations encompass Encoder-Decoder (for translation), Decoder-only (for language modeling), and Encoder-only (like BERT for understanding). Scaling improves both quality and generalization capabilities.
