The paper proposes a lightweight recurrent memory module inserted between the lower and upper halves of a 6‑layer decoder‑only transformer. This module, which uses cross‑attention to observe hidden states, a GRU to update a persistent state, and gated addition to modulate subsequent layers, adds only 3.7% more parameters. It reduces evaluation loss by 28.5% and narrows the generalization gap, with ablations showing the benefit comes solely from the memory topology rather than auxiliary losses.

arXiv:2608. 05806v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While standard Next-Token Prediction (NTP) lays the foundation of language model pre- training, its teacher-forced training paradigm may not be optimal for long-horizon reasoning and planning.
Transformer language models process sequences token by token in an autoregressive manner, making growing contexts increasingly expensive. Yet many adjacent token spans are highly predictable or freque...
