Fast Transformers with Clustered Attention

François Fleuret, Angelos Katharopoulos, Apoorv Vyas

Transformers have been proven a successful model for a variety of tasks in sequence modeling. However, computing the attention matrix, which is their key component, has quadratic complexity with respect to the sequence length, thus making them prohibitivel ...

The role of demand in fostering product vs process innovation: a model and an empirical test

Gabriele Pellegrino

While the extant innovation literature has provided extensive evidence of the so-called "demand-pull" effect, the possible diverse impact of demand evolution on product vs process innovation activities has not been yet investigated. This paper develops a f ...
