Exploring the Frontiers of Softmax: Provable Optimization, Applications in Diffusion Model, and Beyond
Yang Cao, Yingyu Liang, Zhenmei Shi +1
The softmax activation function plays a crucial role in the success of large language models (LLMs), particularly in the self-attention mechanism of the widely adopted Transformer…
Fundamental Limits of Prompt Tuning Transformers: Universality, Capacity and Efficiency
Jerry Yao-Chieh Hu, Wei-Po Wang, Ammar Gilani +3
We investigate the statistical and computational limits of prompt tuning for transformer-based foundation models. Our key contributions are prompt tuning on \emph{single-head} tran…
