arXiv:2609.27233v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Transformer language models process sequences token by token in an autoregressive manner, making growing contexts increasingly expensive. Yet many adja...
arXiv:2511. 05963v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Transformers replace recurrence with a memory that grows with sequence length and self-attention that enables ad-hoc lookups over past tokens.
arXiv:2601. 22954v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) have emerged as a promising alternative to purely autoregressive language models because they can decode multiple tokens in parallel.
arXiv:2607. 08399v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models process prompts by propagating activations through dozens of layers before generating a response.
arXiv:2606. 27617v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Masked Diffusion Models (MDMs) promise fast, parallel language generation, but their reverse transition factorises across token positions -- an approximation that breaks down in the few-step sampling regime where parallel generation ought to provide the greatest efficiency gains.
arXiv:2608. 08888v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autoregressive transformers compute along two axes: horizontally across generated tokens, and vertically through model depth.
arXiv:2605.26797v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study Latent Recurrent Transformer (LRT), a lightweight augmentation of autoregressive transformers that reuses a high-level source-layer hidden...
arXiv:2510. 20535v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent techniques such as retrieval-augmented generation or chain-of-thought reasoning have led to longer contexts and increased inference costs.
The paper proposes a lightweight recurrent memory module inserted between the lower and upper halves of a 6‑layer decoder‑only transformer. This module, which uses cross‑attention to observe hidden states, a GRU to update a persistent state, and gated addition to modulate subsequent layers, adds only 3.7% more parameters. It reduces evaluation loss by 28.5% and narrows the generalization gap, with ablations showing the benefit comes solely from the memory topology rather than auxiliary losses.
arXiv:2508. 10875v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) are rapidly emerging as a powerful and promising alternative to the dominant autoregressive (AR) paradigm.
arXiv:2607. 01237v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reasoning language models often generate long chain-of-thought (CoT), which accumulates a massive KV cache during the decoding phase and incurs high decoding latency and limited throughput.
arXiv:2607. 06523v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-context language model inference is increasingly limited by the memory bandwidth and capacity required to store key-value caches, yet existing compression methods often apply uniform budgets across layers or tokens and degrade retrieval when lexical cues and semantic states require different preservation.
