# ViT experiments: Generation

## Overview

Working implementation of **ViT** for **Generation** using a **small** configuration. The repository focuses on transparent code and repeatable smoke tests; benchmark claims are deliberately omitted.

---

## Architecture

1. **Architecture**: ViT
2. **Scale**: small
3. **Attention**: multi query
4. **Fusion**: gated fusion
5. **Activation**: swish
6. **Normalization**: rmsnorm

---

## Repository Status

1. The Python file contains the model and runnable example or training entry point.
2. `config.json` records the generated architecture settings.
3. `training_args.json` records the default experiment recipe.
4. `model.safetensors` is a valid initialization checkpoint for smoke tests; it is **not** presented as a trained benchmark checkpoint.
5. No benchmark score is claimed in this repository.

---

## Quick Check

Run `python eval.py --help` for the built-in smoke test. Because this is a custom implementation, generic automatic loading APIs require an explicit adapter before use.

---

## Limitations

The initialization checkpoint has not been trained or audited for robustness, fairness, or domain transfer. The implementation should be treated as an experimental starting point. Results from a future trained checkpoint must be documented separately from the defaults shipped here.

---

## Default Experiment Recipe

Defaults: **rmsprop** optimizer, **onecycle** schedule. Treat these as starting points; a real run should sweep learning rate and batch size before drawing conclusions.

---

## Training Details

1. Weights initialized with a kaiming scheme.
2. Runs on a single consumer GPU.
3. Full smoke test takes minutes, not hours.
4. No distributed setup required.
