arXiv:2601. 02451v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) suffer from over-smoothing in deep architectures and expressiveness bounded by the 1-Weisfeiler-Leman (1-WL) test.
By Subhankar Mishra
arXiv:2606. 07574v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Manifold-constrained hyper-connections (mHCs) have recently been proposed as a principled extension of hyper-connections, where the residual mixing matrices are constrained to be doubly stochastic via projection onto the Birkhoff polytope.
By Chenrui Wang, Yixuan Qiu
arXiv:2608. 07851v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Residual connections rely on a static residual pathway, and are essential for training deep neural networks.
By Yuxuan Gu, Wuyang Zhou, Huijun Xing, Danilo Mandic
arXiv:2607. 14530v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Hyper-Connections (HC) expand the residual stream of Transformers into $N$ parallel streams, providing a form of memory scaling beyond model width and depth.

arXiv:2607. 18130v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Most parameter-efficient finetuning (PEFT) methods adapt weights or activations, thus leaving one of the key Transformer components unchanged: residual connections.

arXiv:2606. 01227v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many networks not only support but also rely on transient non-normal amplification, an orders-of-magnitude increase in the activity of an otherwise stable system.
