Visualizing Two-Tower MLP: Core Architecture from RecSys to CLIP
ProfTomYeh · x · 2026-08-20
Prof. Tom Yeh released an interactive diagram explainer on 'Two-Tower MLP', breaking down the architecture that processes two inputs through independent MLPs before combining their outputs. The post details its critical role in recommendation systems (separate user and item towers) and multimodal learning (e.g., how CLIP maps text and images into a shared embedding space for retrieval).
