This next paper is a bit quirky, but here goes:
Introspection is hard to study in both humans and LLMs. But, we do have internal senses that are verifiable, like proprioception (the sense of where your arm is right now).
What would proprioception look like in language models?
As a digital analogue to the sense of position, a model could verbalize which expert activated in a certain layer for any previous token.
It turns out that LLMs can learn a range of such proprioception skills where they understand and report on their internals. We can calibrate and score these reports, and evaluate whether training for proprioception changes model behaviors.

Great summary of our paper, Depth Memory!
We
1. introduce a framework for existing depth mixing methods and
2. propose a new depth mixer that outperforms AttnRes and mHC.
Check it out! 🚀 @_davidgonmar @tk_rusch @Shiwei_Liu66
"Depth Memory"
Attention Residuals stores earlier Transformer layer outputs for retrieval but this memory grows with depth.
Linear Depth Memory (LDM) maintains a fixed-size memory across layers, using recursive least squares to store and retrieve earlier layer information alongside the standard residual stream.
On 400M and 1.5B models, LDM achieves lower perplexity than standard residuals, mHC, and AttnRes, while maintaining competitive zero-shot accuracy and comparable throughput with optimized kernels.

should expand it to a "zoo" of pretraining and then a "zoo" of post-training 😆
mHC, iHC, oHC, xHC, and a zoo of AttnRes variants... An LLM architect with FOMO from the daily explosion of new papers? 🫠

Memory Attention paper update!
Added extensive ablation studies exploring MA integration, placement, normalization, and Attnres.
simple idea: V = K + M.
More parameters, yet a lower GPU memory footprint, better performance, and no V cache!

Could this be a direction for future model architectures?
