# Tiny Transformer for Retrieval
## Overview
A research-oriented **Tiny Transformer** prototype targeting **Retrieval**. The included **giant** setup documents defaults and file formats without presenting unverified performance numbers.
## Repository status
- The Python file contains the model and runnable example or training entry point.
- `config.json` records the generated architecture settings.
- `training_args.json` records the default experiment recipe.
- `model.safetensors` is a valid initialization checkpoint for smoke tests; it is **not** presented as a trained benchmark checkpoint.
- No benchmark score is claimed in this repository.
## Architecture
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Architecture | Tiny Transformer |
| Scale | giant |
| Attention | sparse |
| Fusion | tensor fusion |
| Activation | relu |
| Normalization | layernorm |
## Default experiment recipe
The included configuration uses **lamb** with a **exponential** schedule. These are starting values in the script, not evidence of a completed run. For a meaningful evaluation, train all baselines with the same data exposure, tuning budget, and random seeds.
## Quick check
```bash
python model.py --help
```
Inspect the script's `__main__` block for its generated smoke-test example. Because this is a custom implementation, generic automatic loading APIs require an explicit adapter before use.
## Evaluation guidance
A useful first evaluation would use **Flickr30k**, report the task metric across at least three seeds, and include a matched-capacity baseline. Keep training logs and environment versions with any published result.
## 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.
