Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure include systems and methods for training transformer models using position masking. In some embodiments, a set of data for training a transformer model is received. The set of data includes a sequence of tokens and a set of position values. Each position value in the set of position values represents a position of a token in the sequence of tokens relative to other tokens in the sequence of tokens. A subset of the set of position values in the set of data is selected. Each position value in the subset of the set of position values is replaced with a second defined value to form a second set of defined values. The transformer model is trained using the set of data.
