arXiv:2606. 24396v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Transformer models function as Dense Associative Memories (DAMs), retrieving knowledge via high-dimensional attractor dynamics driven by the self-attention mechanism \citep{ramsauer2020hopfield, wu2024attention}.

arXiv:2608. 12398v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose IM-LEPP (Integrated Multimodal Latent Energy-based Predictive Processing), a hierarchical, energy-based model of multimodal cognition that extends a previously proposed single-modality model (LEPP) to integrate vision and language.

arXiv:2607. 15449v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Using the language of Wilsonian renormalization group theory (RG), we treat the Transformer's attention mechanism as a perturbation of the trained MLP residual-stack fixed point and ask whether it constitutes a relevant, marginal, or irrelevant operator.

arXiv:2608. 01833v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Grokking is a striking phenomenon in neural network training, where a model can undergo a prolonged period of pure memorization before abrupt generalization.

arXiv:2501. 18322v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Transformers, which are state-of-the-art in most machine learning tasks, represent the data as sequences of vectors called tokens.

arXiv:2606. 24752v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The loss of plasticity - the ability of a network to learn new information after having already learned older information - is a fundamental challenge in creating artificial neural networks capable of continual learning.

arXiv:2608. 15239v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Power-law anisotropy in internal representations has been observed across a wide range of biological and artificial neural systems, from state-of-the-art language models to the mouse cerebral cortex.

arXiv:2606. 02993v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding how structured internal structure emerges during neural network training is central to the study of deep learning.

arXiv:2607. 26648v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are promoted as an energy-efficient substrate because sparse, event-driven activity replaces dense multiply-accumulates with cheap accumulates.

arXiv:2606. 10384v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Criticality has been proposed as a key organizing principle in biological neural systems, yet its origin and relevance in artificial neural networks remain unclear.
By Feixiang Ren, Ling Feng
arXiv:2608. 08922v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transformer layers generate state-dependent interaction networks: token representations determine the attention matrix, which in turn updates the representations.

arXiv:2607. 11950v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Brain field potentials are scale-free: their power spectra follow a $1/f^{\beta}$ law whose aperiodic exponent $\beta$ tracks cortical state, and sleep depth in particular is a shift in $\beta$.
