Transformer models can exactly interpolate finite sequence datasets

Researchers have demonstrated that transformers can precisely interpolate datasets of finite input sequences. Their construction uses a number of blocks proportional to the sum of output sequence lengths and parameters independent of input sequence length. This method, which alternates feed-forward and self-attention layers, utilizes low-rank parameter matrices and has been proven effective in both hardmax and softmax settings, offering convergence guarantees for learning problems.
