Attention Is All You Need
Vaswani et al., 2017

The dominant sequence transduction models are based on complex recurrent or convolutional neural networks that include an encoder and a decoder. We propose a new simple network architecture, the Transformer, based solely on attention mechanisms, dispensing with recurrence and convolutions entirely. Experiments on two machine translation tasks show these models to be superior in quality while being more parallelizable and requiring significantly less time to train…
