Transformers are currently being enhanced through various architectural innovations aimed at improving efficiency and performance in tasks such as natural language processing and multi-hop reasoning. Advances like CSRv2 enable ultra-sparse embeddings that significantly reduce computational costs while maintaining accuracy, making them suitable for real-time applications. Other approaches, such as directional routing and relation-aware sparse attention, focus on optimizing attention mechanisms to enhance model interpretability and reasoning capabilities. Additionally, techniques like uncertainty-aware attention and weight decay diagnostics provide insights into model behavior and improve prediction reliability. These developments are crucial for builders aiming to deploy AI systems that require both high performance and efficient resource utilization.

In the era of large foundation models, the quality of embeddings has become a central determinant of downstream task performance and overall system capability. Yet widely used dense embeddings are oft...
Mechanistic interpretability typically relies on post-hoc analysis of trained networks. We instead adopt an interventional approach: testing hypotheses a priori by modifying architectural topology to ...
We introduce directional routing, a lightweight mechanism that gives each transformer attention head learned suppression directions controlled by a shared router, at 3.9% parameter cost. We train a 43...
Rotary positional embeddings (RoPE) are widely used in large language models to encode token positions through multiplicative rotations, yet their behavior at long context lengths remains poorly chara...
Transformers achieve remarkable performance across many domains, yet struggle with tasks requiring multi-hop relational reasoning over structured data. We analyze this limitation through circuit compl...
Transformers often display an attention sink: probability mass concentrates on a fixed, content-agnostic position. We prove that computing a simple trigger-conditional behavior necessarily induces a s...
Neural NLP models are often miscalibrated, assigning high confidence to incorrect predictions, which undermines selective prediction and high-stakes deployment. Post-hoc calibration methods adjust out...
Transformers trained on modular arithmetic exhibit sharp transitions between memorization, generalization, and collapse. We show that weight decay acts as a scalar empirical control parameter for thes...
Transformers can perform in-context classification from a few labeled examples, yet the inference-time algorithm remains opaque. We study multi-class linear classification in the hard no-margin regime...
