    FIGURE 2.

    Schematic representation of transformer producing text outputs through encoder/decoder architecture. Each encoder in transformer comprises 2 neural networks: recurrent neural network self-attention network followed by feed-forward network. Each decoder comprises 3 neural networks: recurrent neural network self-attention network, feed-forward network, and then casual attention decoder.
