Summary

​ Scaled dot-product attention (SDPA) computes its Attention by computing the similarity-scores of all image-tokens with all query tokens which results in O(N²·d) complexity. SSOG (Sum Of Separable Gaussians) instead learns a few Gaussian atoms for each head and only geometrically steers them based
