New HyperSSM model tracks input order using quaternion channels

A new paper introduces HyperSSM, an advancement in state space models (SSMs) designed to overcome limitations of current Transformer alternatives. Unlike existing SSMs that use diagonal real or complex numbers, which lose order information, HyperSSM incorporates quaternion channels. This allows it to accurately track the order of inputs, solving complex group tasks with high precision and generalizing to sequences significantly longer than those seen during training. The research also provides a theoretical framework for understanding SSM transitions, enabling direct interpretation of learned weights, as demonstrated by applications in calibrating gyroscopes and analyzing protein backbones.

IMPACT Introduces a novel approach to sequence modeling that could improve performance on tasks requiring order-dependent information.

    Symmetry in Time: A Representation Theory of Linear Recurrent Memory

    State space models (SSMs) are an emerging alternative to Transformers. SSMs offer linear-time inference and parallel training, but most implementations make the parallel scan efficient by making the recurrence diagonal: each channel of the hidden state is multiplied by an input-d…
