Deep Learning for Computer Vision Quiz 2 12 Apr 2026 — Question 14

Question 14

+1 markOne correct option

Which statement is true?

  1. A

    Transformers process sequences sequentially but utilize parallelized loss computation to speed up training.

  2. B

    The attention mechanism strictly limits the context window size, whereas RNNs have a theoretically infinite context window in practice.

  3. C

    Self-attention enables direct interactions between any pair of tokens within a layer.

  4. D

    Transformers inherently encode positional information in their feed-forward weights, eliminating the need for explicit sequence tracking.
