Contextual evidence from Add positional encoding
The timing signal: channels/2 geometric timescales from 1 to 10,000; the sines and the cosines of position/timescale are concatenated along the channels and added to x.

def add_timing_signal_1d(x, min_timescale=1.0, max_timescale=1.0e4):
"""Adds a bunch of sinusoids of different frequencies to a Tensor.
Each channel of the input Tensor is incremented by a sinusoid of a different
frequency and phase.
This allows attention to learn to use absolute and relative positions.
Timing signals should be added to some precursors of both the query and the
memory inputs to attention.
The use of relative position is possible because sin(x+y) and cos(x+y) can be
experessed in terms of y, sin(x) and cos(x).
In particular, we use a geometric sequence of timescales starting with
min_timescale and ending with max_timescale. The number of different
timescales is equal to channels / 2. For each timescale, we
generate the two sinusoidal signals sin(timestep/timescale) and
cos(timestep/timescale). All of these sinusoids are concatenated in
the channels dimension.

x: a Tensor with shape [batch, length, channels]

max_timescale: a float
Returns:
a Tensor the same shape as x.

The decoder input is the embedded targets shifted right by one position, plus the timing signal; its self-attention bias is lower-triangular.

Self-attention projects queries, keys and values with one 1×1 convolution; attention to a memory projects queries from the input and keys and values from the memory; heads are split, queries scaled by depth^-0.5, attended, combined and projected out.
