The key component of the transformer architecture is the attention module. Its job is to figure out the matching pairs (think: Translation) in a sequence through similarity scores. When the length of a sequence increases, calculating similarity scores for all pairs gets inefficient. So, the researchers have come up with the sparse attention technique where…

  The advent of large datasets and compute resources made convolution neural networks (CNNs) the backbone for many computer vision applications. The field of deep learning has in turn largely shifted toward the design of architectures of CNNs for improving the performance on image recognition. Poor scaling properties in convolutional neural networks (CNNs) make capturing…
