Researchers have conducted a controlled study on Deep Neural Operators (DeepONets) to understand the impact of various attention mechanisms on their performance. The study systematically evaluated five DeepONet variants with different attention configurations, including cross-attention, self-attention, and tokenization, under both data-driven and physics-informed training scenarios. Results indicate that per-sensor tokenization combined with cross-attention significantly reduces error rates across multiple benchmark problems, with query-dependent cross-attention proving to be the most reliable mechanism.
