Generative modeling with sparse transformers
OpenAI developed the Sparse Transformer, a deep neural network that predicts sequences 30x longer than previous models. It uses an improved attention mechanism to extract patterns from long sequences. This model sets new records in sequence prediction for text, images, and sound. You can apply this technique to improve sequence modeling in your own projects.
Key takeaways
- Handles sequences 30x longer than previous models
- Uses improved attention mechanism for pattern extraction
- Sets new records in sequence prediction for text, images, and sound
