Gated Delta Networks: Improving Mamba2 with Delta Rule

Paper summary

Gated DeltaNet combines adaptive memory gating with delta-rule updates in a linear recurrent architecture. Gating enables forgetting while targeted updates manage associations; a parallel algorithm supports hardware-efficient training.

Relevance to the project

A concrete memory-update comparison for bounded histories and mutable state. Test retention, forgetting, dynamics, and compute separately from language benchmark accuracy.

Sequence modelingMemorySelf-modifying networksEfficient training

Externally trained recurrent memory is not a validated evolutionary mechanism.
