Question 1
In a decoder-only transformer using scaled dot-product attention, what is the purpose of dividing the dot product of Q and K by the square root of the head dimension?
Correct Answer:
It keeps the softmax in a regime with usable gradients as head dimension grows
Question 2
Which positional encoding scheme rotates query and key vectors in 2D subspaces so that relative position information is preserved in attention scores?
Correct Answer:
Rotary Position Embedding (RoPE)
Question 3
Which normalization variant drops the mean-centering step and divides by the root-mean-square of activations, and is used by Llama-style models?
Correct Answer:
RMSNorm
Question 4
Compared to Post-LN, why have modern large language models largely adopted Pre-LN placement of the normalization layer?
Correct Answer:
Pre-LN provides better training stability at large depths and removes the need for warmup tricks
Question 5
Which activation pattern is used in the feed-forward block of Llama-class models, replacing the original transformer's ReLU-based FFN?
Correct Answer:
SwiGLU
