An online system trains a transformer architecture by an initialization method which allows the transformer architecture to be trained without normalization layers of learning rate warmup, resulting in significant improvements in computational efficiency for transformer architectures. Specifically, an attention block included in an encoder or a decoder of the transformer architecture generates the set of attention representations by applying a key matrix to the input key, a query matrix to the input query, a value matrix to the input value to generate an output, and applying an output matrix to the output to generate the set of attention representations. The initialization method may be performed by scaling the parameters of the value matrix and the output matrix with a factor that is inverse to a number of the set of encoders or a number of the set of decoders.

An apparatus and method are provided for performing vector processing operations. In particular the apparatus has processing circuitry to perform the vector processing operations and an instruction decoder to decode vector instructions to control the processing circuitry to perform the vector processing operations specified by the vector instructions. The instruction decoder is responsive to a vector generating instruction identifying a scalar start value and wrapping control information, to control the processing circuitry to generate a vector comprising a plurality of elements. In particular, the processing circuitry is arranged to generate the vector such that the first element in the plurality is dependent on the scalar start value, and the values of the plurality of elements follow a regularly progressing sequence that is constrained to wrap as required to ensure that each value is within bounds determined from the wrapping control information. The vector generating instruction can be useful in a variety of situations, a particular use case being to implement a circular addressing mode within memory, where the vector generating instruction can be coupled with an associated vector memory access instruction. Such an approach can remove the need to provide additional logic within the memory access path to support such circular addressing.
