No open-access PDF, so we'll narrate a briefing from the abstract instead.
[ TLDR ]
This paper empirically compares the capability of transformer architectures and transfer-learning on the task of EM and shows that transformer architectures outperform classical deep learning methods in EM by an average margin of 27.5%.
