Tensor Cache enhances Transformer long-context memory

Researchers have developed a novel memory system called Tensor Cache for Transformers, designed to enhance their ability to handle long contexts. This system combines a sliding-window cache with a second-level fast-weight memory that stores evicted tokens. By compressing and recalling evicted KV pairs efficiently, Tensor Cache aims to improve the trade-off between memory usage and model quality for long-context language modeling and other applications.

    Tensor Cache: Eviction-conditioned Associative Memory for Transformers

    arXiv:2605.22884v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autoregressive Transformer KV caches grow linearly with context length; sliding-window caching bounds memory but discards evicted tokens entirely, so relevant evidence outside the window becomes inaccessible. We introduce \emph{Te…
