| 58 | +abstract: "In this report, we perform a detailed study on the paper 'On the Relationship between Self-Attention and Convolutional Layers', which provides theoretical and experimental evidence that self attention layers can behave like convolutional layers. |
| 59 | +The proposed method does not obtain state-of-the-art performance but rather answers an interesting question - do self-attention layers process images in a similar manner to convolutional layers? |
| 60 | +This has inspired many recent works which propose fully-attentional models for image recognition. |
| 61 | +We focus on experimentally validating the claims of the original paper and our inferences from the results led us to propose a new variant of the attention operation - Hierarchical Attention. |
| 62 | +The proposed method shows significantly improved performance with fewer parameters, hence validating our hypothesis. |
| 63 | +To facilitate further study, all the code used in our experiments are publicly available here - https://github.com/NishantPrabhu/Self-Attention-and-Convolutions." |
