Fast-Slow Training uses context optimization as fast weights alongside parameter updates as slow weights to achieve up to 3x better sample efficiency, higher performance, and less catastrophic forgetting than standard RL in continual LLM learning.
Preconditioned delta-rule models with a diagonal curvature approximation improve upon standard DeltaNet, GDN, and KDA by better approximating the test-time regression objective.
A 130M-parameter 1-layer GPN achieves FineWeb-Edu perplexity 18.06, within 13% of a 12-layer Transformer++ (16.05) and 18% of a 10-layer GDN (15.34).
StateX post-trains RNNs to expand recurrent state size, improving recall and in-context learning with negligible parameter growth.
