19h50 Gerhard Paass - Senior Researcher at Fraunhofer IAIS: State Space Models as an Alternative to the Transformer?
By using the transformer, generative language models are for the first time able to generate plausible texts of high quality. However, the computational and memory requirements increase quadratically with the length of the input. State-space models offer a way to account for longer input in language models. The talk gives a short introduction to these models and discusses some benchmark results. It is shown that combinations of transformers and state-space models offer a number of advantages. Some applications of state space models are also mentioned.
