Researchers have developed a new distillation method to improve the performance of Recurrent Transformers, which are designed to handle long sequences more efficiently than standard transformers. This technique trains a student recurrent model by directly supervising its memory compression with a teacher model that processes the full observation history. The approach has shown success in reducing the performance gap on tasks like the Mem-RPE benchmark and visual question answering, enabling linear-time complexity for robotic memory applications. AI
