Attention Dropout
Attention Dropout
**Attention Dropout** is a type of [dropout](https://paperswithcode.com/method/dropout) used in attention-based architectures, where elements are randomly dropped out of the [softmax](https://paperswithcode.com/method/softmax) in the attention equation. For example, for scaled-dot product attention, we would drop elements from the first term:

$$ {\text{Attention}}(Q, K, V) = \text{softmax}\left(\frac{QK^{T}}{\sqrt{d_k}}\right)V $$
