Structured Recurrent Mixers for Massively Parallelized Sequence Generation

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

arXiv:2605. 08696v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Over the last two decades, language modeling has experienced a shift from the use of predominantly recurrent architectures that process tokens sequentially during training and inference to non-recurrent models that process sequence elements in parallel during training, which results in greater training efficiency and stability at the expense of lower inference throughput.

Extending LLM Context via Associative Recurrent Memory

arXiv:2607. 11614v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Extending the context length of large language models (LLMs) is critical for many real-world applications, yet standard transformers remain constrained by quadratic compute and linear memory scaling.

Hidden Decoding at Scale: Latent Computation Scaling for Large Language Models

Scaling Large Language Models (LLMs) has been driven mainly by enlarging the Transformer backbone, but for an already-strong model this requires another round of costly pretraining. We study whether an existing backbone can keep improving by allocating more computation to each token while leaving the Transformer backbone fixed.
