Optimality and NP-Hardness of Transformers in Learning Markovian Dynamical Functions

Yanna Ding, Songtao Lu, Yingdong Lu +2

Transformer architectures can solve unseen tasks based on input-output pairs in a given prompt due to in-context learning (ICL). Existing theoretical studies on ICL have mainly foc…
