DeepMind x UCL | Deep Learning Lectures | 8/12 | Attention and Memory in Deep Learning

Attention and memory have emerged as two vital new components of deep learning over the last few years. This lecture by DeepMind Research Scientist Alex Graves covers a broad range of contemporary attention mechanisms, including the implicit attention present in any deep network, as well as both discrete and differentiable variants of explicit attention. It then discusses networks with external memory and explains how attention provides them with selective recall. It briefly reviews transformers, a particul
