ASRN Adaptive Sparse Recurrence Network [N]

Reddit r/MachineLearning Papers

Summary

The ASRN Adaptive Sparse Recurrence Network introduces a copy layer for language models that looks up earlier occurrences of the current context via learned hash tables and reproduces what followed, achieving memory usage linear in sequence length as a cheaper alternative to full attention.

A copy layer for language models that finds earlier occurrences of the current context with learned hash tables and copies what came next — with memory linear in sequence length.

WriteSAE introduces the first sparse autoencoder that decomposes matrix cache writes in state-space and hybrid recurrent language models, enabling superior token-level interventions compared to existing methods.

LDARNet: DNA Adaptive Representation Network with Learnable Tokenization for Genomic Modeling

arXiv cs.CL

LDARNet is a 120M-parameter hierarchical genomic foundation model that introduces learnable adaptive tokenization (inspired by H-Net's dynamic chunking) for masked language modeling on DNA sequences. It achieves state-of-the-art results on 5 histone modification tasks and outperforms models up to 20× larger on several genomic benchmarks, with learned token boundaries aligning with biological features like promoter motifs and splice junctions.
