Transformers Models
Transformer and its variants already became the most important backbone of the AI industry. It is the core of the most popular LLMs, and also the important part of lots of sequence and generative models. In this blog, we will focus on the fundamental implementation of vanilla transformer, from the basic building blocks to the complete transformer encoder and decoder. We will also cover commonly used optimization techniques for the transformer, especially for common hardwares like GPU and TPU.
