Transformer-based models consist of interleaved feed-forward blocks - that capture content meaning, and relatively more expensive self-attention blocks - that capture context meaning. In this paper, we explored trade-offs and ordering of the blocks to improve upon the current Transformer architecture and proposed PAR Transformer. It needs 35% lower compute time than Transformer-XL achieved by replacing ~63% of the self-attention blocks with feed-forward blocks, and retains the perplexity on WikiText-103 language modelling benchmark. We further validated our results on text8 and enwiki8 datasets, as well as on the BERT model.

Efficient Language Modeling for Low-Resource Settings with Hybrid RNN-Transformer Architectures
A hybrid architecture with two QRNN layers followed by a PAR Transformer reaches 1.013 BPC on enwik8 and 20.91 PPL on Wikitext-103 with 41-60M parameters.
