DataHour: Transformers from Scratch

About the Event

In this DataHour, Shiladitya will be discussing the fundamentals of Transformers. Transformers are the backbone powering many state of the art models in the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) .

In this session we will dive deep into the self attention mechanism which is central to the Transformer architecture. We will also be coding the self attention mechanism from scratch. Along with this, the attendees will get a broad understanding of the transformer model ecosystem (specifically Huggingface).


Prerequisites:
 
A basic understanding of Python programming language and familiarity with Linear regression would be helpful.
