Transformer-XL: Attentive Language Models Beyond a Fixed-Length Context
Transformer networks have a potential of learning longer-term dependency, but are limited by a fixed-length context in the setting of language modeling. As a solution, we propose a novel neural architecture, \textit{Transformer-XL}, that enables Transformer to learn dependency beyond a fixed length without disrupting temporal coherence.
