Prospective Coding Improves Learning in Deep Continuous-Time Recurrent Networks

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper introduces Recursive Quadrature Filters (RQFs), complex‑valued temporal filters that act as band‑pass filters within diagonal state‑space models. By making each layer’s bottom‑up input prospective through a parameter‑free two‑tap update, the authors mitigate depth‑dependent gradient attenuation in deep continuous‑time recurrent networks. Experiments on RQFs, S5, and ORGaNICs show that prospective variants match or surpass non‑prospective controls, achieving high accuracy on raw‑audio Speech Commands and the Path‑X task with few parameters.

Frequency Domain Reservoir Computing

arXiv:2606. 24969v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While the quadratic sequence-length bottleneck of transformers has fueled a resurgence in recurrent models, effectively capturing complex dynamics requires architectures that balance efficient training with highly expressive latent states.

Gated Recurrent Transformers: Expressive Depth through Recurrent Modulation

The paper introduces Gated Recurrent Transformers, a depth‑sharing architecture that brackets a single shared core with fixed prelude and coda blocks and uses a lightweight projection and element‑wise update gate to modulate recurrent updates. This design allows functional specialization across recurrences while reducing memory footprint. Experiments show that, under equal FLOPs or parameter budgets, the recurrent model matches or surpasses deeper GPT‑2 Small baselines, achieving similar or better accuracy with fewer parameters and lower peak decoding memory.
