arXiv:2606. 29256v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In recent years, models based on the Transformer architecture have seen widespread applications and have become one of the core tools in the field of deep learning.
arXiv:2610.26974v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We show that two-layer transformers trained to near-zero loss on a sorting task converge to one of two mechanistically distinct solution classes depend...
arXiv:2606. 27748v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transformer models rely on attention mechanism to capture long-range dependencies but suffer from quadratic complexity, limiting their scalability to long sequences.
arXiv:2410. 24050v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large-scale pretraining of transformers has been central to the success of foundation models.
arXiv:2505. 15548v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Autoregressive transformer language models frequently exhibit training instability when trained on long sequences, particularly under low-precision arithmetic.
arXiv:2609.38149v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Transformer language models (LMs) are feed-forward: deep-layer representations are never fed back to shallower layers, and the only pathway for informa...
