Medium GrooveSquid.com (original content) Medium Difficulty Summary
The Transformer architecture has shown impressive performance across various tasks, but its high computational demands have hindered further research. To address this issue, the State Space Model (SSM) has gained attention as a potential replacement for self-attention based Transformers. This paper provides a comprehensive review of SSMs and their applications in natural language processing, computer vision, graph, multi-modal, point cloud/event stream, time series data, and other domains. The authors describe the principles behind SSMs, review existing models, and provide statistical comparisons to demonstrate their effectiveness on various tasks.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
The paper reviews the State Space Model (SSM) as a possible replacement for the Transformer architecture. This model has gained attention due to its lower computational demands. The authors look at how SSMs have been used in different areas such as natural language processing, computer vision, and more. They also compare the performance of different SSM models on various tasks.
