The paper argues that the Transformer outperforms traditional models based on recurrent neural networks in terms of both quality and training speed. The Transformer relies entirely on attention mechanisms to model dependencies between input and output sequences, eliminating the need for recurrence and convolution. The paper details the architecture of the Transformer, including its encoder and decoder stacks, scaled dot-product attention, multi-head attention, positional encodings, and other components. The paper concludes by presenting experimental results on machine translation and English constituency parsing tasks, demonstrating the Transformer's effectiveness in both domains.
