The transformer architecture has revolutionized natural language processing since its introduction in the “Attention Is All You Need” paper. This post explores the key components of transformers, from self-attention mechanisms to positional encodings, and how they enable the remarkable capabilities of models like BERT and GPT.

Key topics covered:

  • Self-attention mechanism
  • Multi-head attention
  • Position-wise feed-forward networks
  • Layer normalization
  • Positional encodings

Stay tuned for a deep dive into each component and their interactions.
