We present The Transformer Cookbook: a collection of recipes for programming algorithms directly into transformers!

Hungry for an induction head? Craving a Dyck language recognizer? We show you step-by-step how to cook up transformers for these algorithms and many more!

There is no better way to understand what transformers can do than to get your hands dirty and construct them, weight-by-weight. The Transformer Cookbook provides a guide for anyone aiming to understand the expressive power of transformers on such a formal level.

Neural methods haven't taken over as much you'd think, especially in smaller companies that can't afford large-scale data + compute. OpenFST is still used directly in Hybrid DNN-HMM ASR models, and also indirectly, through Pynini, in (Inverse) Text Normalisation, needed for both TTS and ASR
