arXiv:2507. 11688v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Contemporary large models often exhibit behaviors suggesting the presence of low-level primitives that compose into modules with richer functionality, but these fundamental building blocks remain poorly understood.

arXiv:2608. 01528v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vector symbolic architectures (VSA) are widely used for reasoning in neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI, yet high-dimensional codebooks often create severe memory bottlenecks that limit scalability and deployment.

arXiv:2606. 03465v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Post-training compression is essential for deploying large language models (LLMs) under tight resource constraints.

arXiv:2606. 08347v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern language models represent text using discrete token-level embeddings, which forces recurring multi-token patterns to be learned implicitly across Transformer layers.

arXiv:2606. 27229v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recurrent models must forget in order to remember, yet the state of the art decides what to erase without consulting what is stored -- the gate sees only the arriving token, not the memory it is about to modify.

Post-training compression is essential for deploying large language models (LLMs) under tight resource constraints. Tensor decompositions have emerged as a promising direction, offering compact parameterizations well suited to Transformer weight structures.
arXiv:2602. 24264v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Compositional generalization, the ability to recognize familiar parts in novel contexts, is a defining property of intelligent systems.

arXiv:2502. 09928v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Originating in quantum physics, tensor networks (TNs) have been widely adopted as exponential machines and parametric decomposers for recognition tasks.

Common first-order optimizers, such as Adam, implicitly treat each parameter block as an unstructured vector, which disregards the multilinear weight structure present in many modern machine learning models. Recent work has shown that exploiting matrix structure can improve optimization dynamics.
arXiv:2502. 01015v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Task arithmetic, representing downstream tasks through linear operations on task vectors, has emerged as a simple yet powerful paradigm for transferring knowledge across diverse settings.

arXiv:2608. 04060v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Joint-embedding predictive architectures learn abstract states by predicting target embeddings from context embeddings, but their transition models are typically opaque neural maps.
