8 Wonderful Matrices: Combining for a More Efficient and Effective Foundation Model Architecture In order to make the foundation model more efficient and effective, our idea is combining sequence transformation and state transformation. First, we prove the availability of rotary position embedding in the state space duality algorithm, which reduces the perplexity of the hybrid quadratic causal self-attention and state space duality by more than 4%, to ensure that the combining sequence transformation unifies position encoding. Second, we propose dynamic mask attention, which maintains 100% accuracy in the more challenging multi-query associative recall task, improving by more than 150% compared to quadratic causal self-attention and state space duality, to ensure that the combining sequence transformation selectively filters relevant information. Third, we design cross domain mixture of experts, which makes the computational speed of expert retrieval with more than 1024 experts 8 to 10 times faster than the mixture of experts, to ensure that the combining state transformation quickly retrieval mixture. Finally, we summarize these matrix algorithms that can form the foundation model: Wonderful Matrices, which can be a competitor to popular model architectures. 2 authors · Dec 16, 2024 2
4 Cheems: Wonderful Matrices More Efficient and More Effective Architecture Recent studies have shown that, relative position encoding performs well in selective state space model scanning algorithms, and the architecture that balances SSM and Attention enhances the efficiency and effectiveness of the algorithm, while the sparse activation of the mixture of experts reduces the training cost. I studied the effectiveness of using different position encodings in structured state space dual algorithms, and the more effective SSD-Attn internal and external function mixing method, and designed a more efficient cross domain mixture of experts. I found that the same matrix is very wonderful in different algorithms, which allows us to establish a new hybrid sparse architecture: Cheems. Compared with other hybrid architectures, it is more efficient and more effective in language modeling tasks. 6 authors · Jul 23, 2024 1
- On affine spaces of alternating matrices with constant rank Let F be a field, and n geq r>0 be integers, with r even. Denote by A_n(F) the space of all n-by-n alternating matrices with entries in F. We consider the problem of determining the greatest possible dimension for an affine subspace of A_n(F) in which every matrix has rank equal to r (or rank at least r). Recently Rubei has solved this problem over the field of real numbers. We extend her result to all fields with large enough cardinality. Provided that n geq r+3 and |F|geq minbigl(r-1,r{2}+2bigr), we also determine the affine subspaces of rank r matrices in A_n(F) that have the greatest possible dimension, and we point to difficulties for the corresponding problem in the case nleq r+2. 1 authors · Jul 19, 2023
