[Updated on 2018-10-28: Add Pointer Network and the link to my implementation of Transformer.] [Updated on 2018-11-06: Add a link to the implementation of Transformer model.] [Updated on 2018-11-18: Add Neural Turing Machines .] [Updated on 2019-07-18: Correct the mistake on using the term “self-attention” when introducing the show-attention-tell paper; moved it to Self-Attention section.] [Updated on 2020-04-07: A follow-up post on improved Transformer models is here .]
Why it made the leaderboard
A rigorous, implementation-backed walkthrough of attention and the Transformer architecture that grounds engineers in the mechanics behind modern LLMs, with code links for self-attention, Pointer Networks, and Neural Turing Machines.
