Simple Local Attentions Remain Competitive for Long-Context Tasks
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
For each attention variant, we pretrain large-size models using the same long-doc corpus and then finetune these models for real-world long-context tasks. ...
Many NLP tasks require processing long contexts beyond the length limit of pretrained models. ...
We did not observe significant performance gaps between different attention variants and simple local attentions remain strong compared to the best Nyström attention. has
