Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

[R] Rotary Positional Embeddings - a new relative positional embedding for Transformers that significantly improves convergence (20-30%) and works for both regular and efficient attention
Performer is the best linear attention variant, but linear attention is just one type of efficient attention solution. I have rotary embeddings already in the repo https://github.com/lucidrains/performer-pytorch and you can witness this phenomenon yourself by toggling it on / off

Why has Google's Performer model not replaced traditional softmax attention?
Here's an PyTorch implementation if you want to play around with it: lucidrains/performer-pytorch: An implementation of Performer, a linear attention-based transformer, in Pytorch (github.com)

Will Transformers Take over Artificial Intelligence?
I would recommend Routing Transformer https://github.com/lucidrains/routing-transformer but the real truth is nothing beats full attention. Luckily, someone recently figured out how to get past the memory bottleneck. https://github.com/lucidrains/memory-efficient-attention-pyt...
