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: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:2601. 11667v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Transformer architectures deliver state-of-the-art accuracy via dense full-attention, but their quadratic time and memory complexity with respect to sequence length limits practical deployment.

arXiv:2605. 09778v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Evaluating softmax attention over a fixed long context requires reading every cached key-value pair for each new query token.

arXiv:2506. 08297v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Attention is the critical component of a transformer.
