Introduction Algorithms and data structures are the foundational elements that can also efficiently support the software development process in programming. Python, an easy-to-code language, has many features like a list, dictionary, and set, which are built-in data structures for the Python language. However, the wizards are unleashed by applying the algorithms in these structures.

Self-attention is the core mathematical operation of modern transformer architectures and is also a significant computational bottleneck due to its quadratic complexity in the sequence length. In this work, we derive the scalar energy function whose gradient computes the self-attention block, thus elucidating the theoretical underpinnings of self-attention, providing a Bayesian interpretation of the operation and linking it closely with energy-based models such as Hopfield Networks.
