In recent years there has been an explosion of methods based on self-attention and in particular Transformers, first in the field of Natural Language Processing and recently also in the field of…
Engineer friends often ask me: Graph Deep Learning sounds great, but are there any big commercial success stories? Is it being deployed in practical applications? Besides the obvious ones–recommendation systems at Pinterest, Alibaba and Twitter–a slightly nuanced success story is the Transformer architecture, which has taken the NLP industry by storm. Through this post, I want to establish links between Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) and Transformers. I’ll talk about the intuitions behind model architectures in the NLP and GNN communities, make connections using equations and figures, and discuss how we could work together to drive progress.
Recent studies have shown that vision transformer (ViT) models can attain better results than most state-of-the-art convolutional neural networks (CNNs) across various image recognition tasks, and can do so while using considerably fewer computational resources. This has led some researchers to propose ViTs could replace CNNs in this field.However, despite their promising performance, ViTs areContinue Reading
