This paper presents Associative Recurrent Memory Transformer (ARMT), a novel neural architecture designed to process very long sequences efficiently. ARMT combines transformer self-attention for local context and segment-level recurrence for storing task-specific information across the sequence. Experimental results show that ARMT outperforms existing alternatives in associative retrieval tasks, achieving a new state-of-the-art performance record on the BABILong multi-task long-context benchmark. Specifically, ARMT achieves an accuracy of 79.9% when answering single-fact questions over 50 million tokens.

This paper creates a special computer model that can understand and process very long pieces of text. The model is called Associative Recurrent Memory Transformer (ARMT). It’s like a super powerful brain that can store and recall lots of information from the text. The researchers tested this model and found it was much better than other models at answering questions about specific facts in a very long piece of text.
