arXiv:2602. 02599v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Long-context inference in large language models (LLMs) is bottlenecked by the memory and compute of the key-value (KV) cache.

arXiv:2509. 10534v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The attention mechanism in a Transformer architecture matches key to query based on both content -- the what -- and position in a sequence -- the where.

arXiv:2606. 24975v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: PaTH Attention showed that replacing RoPE's position-indexed rotations with accumulated data-dependent Householder reflections yields strong length extrapolation, though performance degrades at extreme context lengths.

arXiv:2604. 00004v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The extension of context windows in Large Language Models is typically facilitated by scaling positional encodings followed by lightweight Continual Pre-Training (CPT).

arXiv:2607. 19363v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Rotary Position Embedding (RoPE) is widely adopted in Transformers to encode positional information, yet standard implementations enforce a uniform frequency schedule and scaling across all attention heads.
