Creating positional encodings
Embedding the tokens is a good start, but these embeddings still lack information about each token's position in the sequence. To remedy this, the transformer architecture makes use of positional encodings. This encodes positional information from each token into the embeddings.
You'll create a PositionalEncoding class with the following parameters:
d_model: the dimensionality of the input embeddingsmax_seq_length: the maximum sequence length (or the sequence length if each sequence is the same length)

Transformer Models with PyTorch
Anleitung zur Übung
- Create a matrix of zeros of dimensions
max_seq_lengthbyd_model. - Perform the sine and cosine calculations on
position * div_termto create the even and odd positional embedding values. - Ensure
peisn't a learnable parameter during training. - Add the transformed positional embeddings to the input token embeddings,
x.
