arXiv:2607. 07386v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Linear attention models allow a fixed state size and a fixed amount of compute per token.
arXiv:2608. 15533v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Linear attention models eliminate the quadratic prefix computation and context-growing KV cache of softmax attention by replacing pairwise token interactions with recurrent state updates.
arXiv:2607. 25357v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-context recall in linear-time sequence models highlights a tradeoff in how they write to memory.
arXiv:2607. 07953v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-attention lets each token retrieve information from the full context, but its quadratic cost in sequence length limits training and inference at long context.
arXiv:2606. 09862v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The Softmax Attention operation in Transformer language models has a quadratic complexity in the sequence length and a growing state size in the form of KV cache, which becomes a bottleneck in long context scenarios.
arXiv:2505. 23666v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The per-token cost of transformer inference scales with context length, preventing its application to lifelong in-context learning.
arXiv:2606. 25156v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern large language models based on softmax scaled-dot-product attention are constrained by their training sequence length: as the key-value sequence grows, softmax probability mass can dilute across a wider distribution, inducing activation shift and long-context performance collapse.
arXiv:2608. 12419v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable breakthroughs across various applications.
arXiv:2606. 01294v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Linear attention reduces the quadratic cost of softmax attention by maintaining a recurrent fast-weight state, but it consistently lags on in-context retrieval and long-context tasks.
arXiv:2606. 09888v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Linear attention provides an efficient backbone for long-sequence recommendation by avoiding the quadratic cost of standard Transformers, but its compressed recurrent state can be dominated by repetitive behavior patterns.
arXiv:2606. 09079v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conventional LLMs keep the full KV cache loaded during decoding, causing a severe GPU memory bottleneck for ultra-long context serving.
arXiv:2601. 00417v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Transformer residual streams evolve through additive updates.
arXiv:2606. 16093v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modeling long-range dependencies remains a central challenge in natural language processing.
