AutoNorm: Understanding Adaptive Normalization in Transformers through Differentiable Gating

arXiv:2607. 10593v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Normalization is a critical component for stabilizing Transformer training, yet the choice between static strategies such as Layer Normalization (LN) and adaptive alternatives remains largely task-dependent.
