DeepSeek-V3 Model Architecture: Educational Deep Dive

Overview

This notebook provides an educational exploration of the DeepSeek-V3 transformer architecture breaking down each component with visualizations and examples using randomly generated data to understand how the model works under the hood.

  1. Model Architecture Overview - High-level structure
  2. Attention Mechanisms - Multi-head and grouped-query attention
  3. Feed-Forward Networks - MLP layers and activations
  4. Layer Normalization - RMSNorm implementation
  5. Positional Encodings - RoPE (Rotary Position Embedding)
  6. Mixture of Experts (MoE) - Expert routing and selection
  7. Model Scaling - Different model sizes (16B, 236B, 671B)
  8. Inference Pipeline - How text generation works

This notebook is for:

  • 📖 Educational demonstrations of DeepSeek-V3 Model Architecture.
