TODO:

- read again IBM's [Span Selection Pre-training for Question Answering](doc:2019/09/_1909_04120_span_selection_pre) ("an effort to avoid encoding general knowledge in the transformer network itself")
- compare with [[1907.05242] Large Memory Layers with Product Keys](doc:2019/07/_1907_05242_large_memory_layer)
- how does it relate with [[2002.08909] REALM: Retrieval-Augmented Language Model Pre-Training](doc:2020/12/2002_08909_realm_retrieval_a)?

Current transformer architectures store general knowledge -> large models, long pre-training time. Better to offload the requirement of general knowledge to a sparsely activated network.

"Span selection" as an additional auxiliary task: the query is a sentence drawn from a corpus
with a term replaced with a special token: [BLANK]. The term replaced by the blank is the answer term. The passage is
relevant as determined by a BM25 search, and answer-bearing (containing the answer
term). Unlike BERT’s cloze task, where the answer must be drawn from the model itself, the answer is found in a passage
using language understanding.

> **We hope to progress to a model of general purpose language modeling that uses an indexed long
term memory to retrieve world knowledge, rather than holding it in the densely activated transformer encoder layers.**

[1907.05242] Large Memory Layers with Product Keys

Tags:

> **a structured memory which can be easily integrated into a neural network.** The memory is very large by design and therefore significantly increases the capacity of the architecture, by up to a billion parameters with a negligible computational overhead. Its design and access pattern is based on **product keys**, which enable fast and exact nearest neighbor search. The ability to increase the number of parameters while keeping the same computational budget lets the overall system strike a better trade-off between prediction accuracy and computation efficiency both at training and test time.

> a key-value memory layer that can increase model capacity for a negligible computational cost. A 12-layer transformer with a memory outperforms a 24-layer transformer, and is 2x faster!
