Generalized Transformers from Applicative Functors
>Transformers are a machine-learning model at the foundation of many state-of-the-art systems in modern AI, originally proposed in [arXiv:1706.03762]. In this post, we are going to build a generalization of Transformer models that can operate on (almost) arbitrary structures such as functions, graphs, probability distributions, not just matrices and vectors.
