RAM-Net introduces sparse state access to improve sequence modeling

Researchers have introduced RAM-Net, a novel sequence modeling approach designed to mitigate inter-token interference in recurrent states. Unlike traditional methods that use a shared, dense state, RAM-Net employs a sparsely addressable state organized into independent slots. This allows tokens with distinct addresses to be directed to separate slots, thereby suppressing interference and improving fine-grained long-range recall. RAM-Net demonstrates superior performance on retrieval tasks and achieves competitive commonsense reasoning, all while accessing fewer state elements per step compared to baselines like Mamba2. AI

IMPACT Introduces a new method for sequence modeling that could improve performance on tasks requiring long-range, fine-grained recall.

    RAM-Net: Linear-Time Sequence Modeling with Sparsely Addressable State

    arXiv:2602.11958v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Linear attention offers an efficient alternative to full attention with a fixed-size recurrent state. However, this state is shared by all tokens, so information from distinct tokens becomes superposed within it and produc…
