arXiv:2608.30386v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hybrid linear-attention architectures have recently scaled to large open-weight models, offering quality competitive with full attention while substa...
arXiv:2607. 17419v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Linear attention promises constant-time recurrent inference but degrades sharply on associative recall.
arXiv:2607. 12204v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Attention can be viewed as an online learner over context, yet existing test-time memories cannot certify that dropping a token leaves outputs unchanged or delete its influence outright.
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.
arXiv:2606. 04485v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tabular foundation models (TFMs) increasingly rival tree ensembles, but their performance is often compute-inefficient: with standard affine scalar tokenization, each feature injects value variation through an essentially one-dimensional channel, and feature IDs/positional signals cannot increase within-feature value degrees of freedom, yielding weak early-layer value sensitivity and redundant hidden states.
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:2611.06828v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gated-delta linear attention layers such as Gated DeltaNet (GDN), Kimi Delta Attention (KDA), and GDN-2 are tuned for GPUs, where small tensor-core til...
arXiv:2604.19021v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Linear attention mechanisms have emerged as promising alternatives to softmax attention, offering linear-time complexity during inference. Recent a...
arXiv:2606. 13392v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ultra-long-context capability is becoming indispensable for frontier LLMs: agentic workflows, repository-scale code reasoning, and persistent memory all require the model to jointly attend over hundreds of thousands to millions of tokens, yet the quadratic cost of softmax attention makes this untenable at deployment scale.
arXiv:2607. 12204v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Auditable memory requires a precise contract: which output is preserved, relative to which reference solve, and across which updates.
arXiv:2611. 07232v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: At context lengths of about 1M tokens, dense attention is costly in prefill and decoding, and training typically relies on long documents, which become scarcer as the target length increases.
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.
