LSTM became the standard architecture for long sequence modelling until the 2017 publication of Transformers. However, LSTM still used sequential processing, like most other RNNs. [note 2] Specifically, RNNs operate one token at a time from first to last; they cannot operate in parallel over all tokens in a sequence.
The Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) cell can process data sequentially and keep its hidden state through time. Long short-term memory (LSTM) [1] is a type of recurrent neural network (RNN) aimed at mitigating the vanishing gradient problem [2] commonly encountered by traditional RNNs.
[59] [60] They have fewer parameters than LSTM, as they lack an output gate. [61] Their performance on polyphonic music modeling and speech signal modeling was found to be similar to that of long short-term memory. [62] There does not appear to be particular performance difference between LSTM and GRU. [62] [63]
Operating on byte-sized tokens, transformers scale poorly as every token must "attend" to every other token leading to O(n 2) scaling laws, as a result, Transformers opt to use subword tokenization to reduce the number of tokens in text, however, this leads to very large vocabulary tables and word embeddings.
Generative pretraining (GP) was a long-established concept in machine learning applications. [16] [17] It was originally used as a form of semi-supervised learning, as the model is trained first on an unlabelled dataset (pretraining step) by learning to generate datapoints in the dataset, and then it is trained to classify a labelled dataset.
It was termed intra-attention [31] where an LSTM is augmented with a memory network as it encodes an input sequence. These strands of development were brought together in 2017 with the Transformer architecture , published in the Attention Is All You Need paper.
A vision transformer (ViT) is a transformer designed for computer vision. [1] A ViT decomposes an input image into a series of patches (rather than text into tokens ), serializes each patch into a vector, and maps it to a smaller dimension with a single matrix multiplication .
An LSTM with a forget gate essentially functions as a highway network. To stabilize the variance of the layers' inputs, it is recommended to replace the residual connections x + f ( x ) {\displaystyle x+f(x)} with x / L + f ( x ) {\displaystyle x/L+f(x)} , where L {\displaystyle L} is the total number of residual layers.
