Transformers are SSMs: Generalized Models and Efficient Algorithms Through Structured State Space Duality

Paper summary

Develops state-space duality linking selective state-space models and attention variants through structured matrices. This framework motivates Mamba-2 and a faster core implementation with language-model evaluations.

Relevance to the project

Useful for choosing mathematically related but differently scheduled GPU computations. Compare operation layout, state cost, and numerical behavior under representative F workloads.

Language modelsSequence modelingAttentionEfficient inference

Related formulations can still differ in precision, constraints, and practical performance.
