The Transformer relies entirely on self-attention to compute representations of its input and output without using sequence-aligned RNNs or convolution, enabling significantly more parallelization.
Multi-head attention lets the model attend to information from different representation subspaces. Each head learns a distinct projection — together they capture syntactic and semantic patterns in parallel.
“Attention is all you need — recurrence and convolutions are not required for state-of-the-art sequence transduction.”
Goal: understand why attention beats RNNs for long-range dependencies — prep for Friday seminar.
Compare encoder-decoder attention vs self-attention — could be a great blog post. Reference Bahdanau (2014) as the historical anchor.
Prof. Tanaka emphasized that positional encoding is critical since attention has no inherent order. Sin/cos works because relative positions become linear functions of the encoding vector.
What does the paper say about scaling self-attention beyond 512 tokens, and how does it compare to Longformer's sliding window?
Vanilla self-attention has O(n²) memory and compute complexity, which makes contexts beyond 512 tokens impractical on standard GPUs. Three approaches dominate the literature:
From your highlights: “the dot-product becomes the bottleneck above 1k tokens” — matches Vaswani §3.2.
