Contextual evidence from Add attention update

A decoder block: Perceiver attention with the queries’ stream first read from the decoder’s state and keys and values from the latents and the state, a scaled residual, an MLP and a second scaled residual.

Contextual evidence from LayerNorm

The Perceiver blocks’ MLP: LayerNorm, an affine layer, exact GELU, dropout, an affine layer.

Contextual evidence from LayerNorm

LayerNorm normalizes the final configured axes with population variance, defaults to epsilon 1e-5, and owns learned gain and bias.

class LayerNorm(Module):
    r"""Applies Layer Normalization over a mini-batch of inputs.

    This layer implements the operation as described in
    the paper `Layer Normalization <https://arxiv.org/abs/1607.06450>`__

    .. math::
        y = \frac{x - \mathrm{E}[x]}{ \sqrt{\mathrm{Var}[x] + \epsilon}} * \gamma + \beta

    The mean and standard-deviation are calculated over the last `D` dimensions, where `D`
    is the dimension of :attr:`normalized_shape`. For example, if :attr:`normalized_shape`
    is ``(3, 5)`` (a 2-dimensional shape), the mean and standard-deviation are computed over
    the last 2 dimensions of the input (i.e. ``input.mean((-2, -1))``).
    :math:`\gamma` and :math:`\beta` are learnable affine transform parameters of
    :attr:`normalized_shape` if :attr:`elementwise_affine` is ``True``.
    The standard-deviation is calculated via the biased estimator, equivalent to
    `torch.var(input, unbiased=False)`.

    .. note::
        Unlike Batch Normalization and Instance Normalization, which applies
        scalar scale and bias for each entire channel/plane with the
        :attr:`affine` option, Layer Normalization applies per-element scale and
        bias with :attr:`elementwise_affine`.

    This layer uses statistics computed from input data in both training and
    evaluation modes.

    Args:
        normalized_shape (int or list or torch.Size): input shape from an expected input
            of size

            .. math::
                [* \times \text{normalized\_shape}[0] \times \text{normalized\_shape}[1]
                    \times \ldots \times \text{normalized\_shape}[-1]]

            If a single integer is used, it is treated as a singleton list, and this module will
