Transformer Models

Definition

Transformer models are a type of neural network architecture widely used for processing sequential data, particularly in natural language processing. They utilize self-attention mechanisms to weigh the significance of different parts of the input sequence, allowing them to capture long-range dependencies effectively. This design has significantly advanced fields like machine translation, text generation, and sentiment analysis. While primarily in AI, their principles of processing complex, relational data could influence blockchain data analysis or smart contract verification.
