Rethinking the Role of Efficient Attention in Hybrid Architectures

arXiv:2606. 15378v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern language models increasingly adopt hybrid architectures that combine full attention with efficient attention modules, such as sliding-window attention (SWA) and recurrent sequence mixers.
