Study Notes

Transformer Architecture

The Transformer excels at handling sequential text data, such as translating English to Spanish.
It consists of an Encoder stack and a Decoder stack, each with corresponding Embedding layers.
The Encoder stack and Decoder stack each have their corresponding Embedding layers for their respective inputs.
An Output layer generates the final output.
All Encoders and Decoders in the stack are identical to one another.
The Encoder consists of a Self-attention layer and a Feed-forward layer.
The Decoder consists of a Self-attention layer, a Feed-forward layer, and an Encoder-Decoder attention layer.
Each Encoder and Decoder has its own set of weights.
The Encoder is a reusable module, a defining component of all Transformer architectures.
It also has Residual skip connections around both layers along with LayerNorm layers.
Variations of the Transformer architecture exist, some with no Decoder and rely solely on the Encoder.

Attention Mechanism

The Transformer's groundbreaking performance is due to its use of Attention.
Attention enables the model to focus on closely related words in the input when processing a word.
For example, "ball" is related to "blue" and "holding," but "blue" is not related to "boy."
The Transformer uses self-attention by relating every word in the sequence to every other word.
This allows the model to understand the context of words, even when they are separated by other words.
This is particularly useful for understanding the meaning of pronouns, which can refer to different entities in the sentence.

Attention Layers

Self-attention in the Encoder: The input sequence pays attention to itself.
Self-attention in the Decoder: The target sequence pays attention to itself.
Encoder-Decoder-attention in the Decoder: The target sequence pays attention to the input sequence.
The Attention layer takes three inputs: Query, Key, and Value.

Multi-Head Attention

The Transformer uses multiple Attention heads, running in parallel, enhancing discrimination.
Query, Key, and Value are passed through separate Linear layers, each with its own weights, resulting in Q, K, and V.
These are combined using the Attention formula to produce the Attention Score.
Q, K, and V values carry encoded representations of words in the sequence.
The Attention calculations combine each word with every other word in the sequence, encoding a score for each word.

Attention Masks

The Attention module implements a masking step while computing the Attention Score.
Masking serves two purposes:
- To zero attention outputs where there is padding in input sentences, ensuring that padding doesn’t contribute to self-attention in the Encoder Self-attention and Encoder-Decoder-attention.
- To prevent the Decoder from attending to future positions in the sequence, ensuring that the output does not contain information about the future.

Encoder

The first Encoder receives its input from the Embedding and Position Encoding.
Subsequent Encoders receive input from the previous Encoder.
The Encoder passes its input into a Multi-head Self-attention layer.
The Self-attention output is passed into a Feed-forward layer.
The output of the last Encoder is fed into each Decoder in the Decoder Stack.

Decoder

The Decoder's structure is similar to the Encoder, with a couple of differences.
The first Decoder receives its input from the Output Embedding and Position Encoding.
Subsequent Decoders receive input from the previous Decoder.
The Decoder passes its input into a Multi-head Self-attention layer.
This Self-attention layer only attends to earlier positions in the sequence, preventing it from seeing future information.
The Decoder has a second Multi-head attention layer, called the Encoder-Decoder attention layer.
The Encoder-Decoder attention layer combines two sources of inputs:
- The Self-attention layer below.
- The output of the Encoder stack.
The Self-attention output is passed into a Feed-forward layer.
