Fastformer: Additive Attention Can Be All You Need

创新点：

• 本文根据transformer模型进行改进，提出了一个高效的模型，模型复杂度呈线性。
• 主要改进了注意力机制，出发点在于降低了注意力矩阵的重要程度，该方法采用一个（1*T）一维向量替换了原始T*T大小的注意力矩阵。

注意力结构图：

 

       在这里，输入同样通过不同的线性映射得到Q,K,V，然后通过Q得到Q的权重：

 

 

 其中，从Q到Q的权重变化过程为：

weight:(B,T,D)->(B,T,h)->(B,h,T)->(B,h,1,T)

然后Q和Q的权重做乘法运算weight*query=(B,h,1,ad)->(B,1,h,ad)->(B,1,D)->(B,T,D)：

 

 得到的结果和K做逐点乘法运算：

 

 

 K的权重向量和Q的求法相同：

 

 同样的K和K的权重做乘法运算：

 

 最后的结果和V做逐点运算：

 

 在这里Q和V是相同的，采用了权重共享的方法。
