arXiv:2606. 06564v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Residual connections are central to training deep Transformers, but standard PreNorm residual streams aggregate sublayer updates with fixed unit weights.

arXiv:2606. 16112v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Residual architectures are ubiquitous in deep learning, but they suffer from a subtle structural limitation: the norm of the residual stream can grow rapidly with depth.

arXiv:2607. 09694v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Attention Residuals replace the fixed residual sum with depthwise attention over previous sub-layer outputs in large language models (LLMs), but use each output as both a full-dimensional key and value.

arXiv:2605. 20708v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) have become a de facto backbone of modern visual generation, and nearly every major axis of their design -- tokenization, attention, conditioning, objectives, and latent autoencoders -- has been extensively revisited.

arXiv:2606. 26538v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep Transformers are composed of uniformly stacked residual blocks, yet their deepest layers often add little value.

arXiv:2606. 06467v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-context inference in modern LLMs is increasingly constrained by decoding efficiency, especially in reasoning-heavy settings where models generate long intermediate chains of thought.
