ELiSe: Efficient Learning of Sequences in Structured Recurrent Networks

The paper introduces ELiSe, a model that leverages cortical network scaffolds and dendritic compartments to learn complex non‑Markovian spatio‑temporal patterns using only local, always‑on, phase‑free synaptic plasticity. It demonstrates the model’s ability to acquire and replay intricate sequences, exemplified by a birdsong learning mock‑up, and shows robustness to external disturbances and flexibility in parameter settings.

Understanding Mamba-3 Through Oscillatory Dynamics

Mamba-3 incorporates input‑dependent rotations into its recurrent state updates, which the authors interpret as underdamped second‑order dynamics. Experiments show that these oscillatory dynamics outperform non‑oscillatory regimes on state‑tracking tasks and improve long‑context prediction and length generalization in language‑model pretraining. Further interventions confirm that the learned phase is crucial, suggesting that rotation controls how retained information combines with new updates, thereby supporting long‑context processing.
