InfoMamba: An Attention-Free Hybrid Mamba-Transformer Model

InfoMamba is an attention‑free hybrid model that combines a minimal‑bandwidth global interface with a selective recurrent stream. The architecture replaces token‑level self‑attention with a concept bottleneck linear filtering layer and integrates it via an information‑maximizing fusion (IMF) that injects global context into the state‑space dynamics. Experiments across classification, dense prediction, and non‑vision tasks show that InfoMamba outperforms strong Transformer and SSM baselines while maintaining near‑linear scaling and competitive accuracy‑efficiency trade‑offs.

Advancing Intelligent Sequence Modeling: Evolution, Trade-offs, and Applications of State-Space Architectures from S4 to Mamba

arXiv:2503. 18970v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Structured State Space Models (SSMs) have become a prominent class of sequence models, developed against two long-standing difficulties: the sequential computation and gradient propagation limits of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), and the quadratic time and memory cost of self-attention in Transformers.

Dynamic Linear Attention

The scalability of Large Language Models (LLMs) to long contexts is fundamentally constrained by the quadratic complexity of standard attention, motivating the adoption of linear attention mechanisms with sub-quadratic cost. To improve representation capacity under long contexts, recent approaches organize memory in a multi-state manner.

Kalman Linear Attention: Parallel Bayesian Filtering For Efficient Language Modelling and State Tracking

arXiv:2602. 10743v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: State-space language models such as Mamba and gated linear attention (GLA) offer linear-complexity, parallelisable alternatives to transformers, but their linear state updates limit expressivity and robust state tracking.

MambaCSP: Hybrid-Attention State Space Models for Hardware-Efficient Channel State Prediction

MambaCSP is a hybrid-attention state space model that replaces transformer-based backbones with a linear-time Mamba architecture for channel state prediction. By adding lightweight patch‑mixer attention layers, it captures long‑range dependencies while maintaining hardware efficiency. Experiments on MISO‑OFDM show 9‑12% higher accuracy, 3× faster throughput, 2.6× lower VRAM usage, and 2.9× faster inference compared to LLM‑based methods.
