Hippo: Recurrent Memory with Optimal Polynomial Projection Motivation Hidden state in RNN represents a form of memory of the past. For a sequence, a natural way to represent the past sequence is to project it onto an orthonormal basis set. Here depending on the different emphasis of the past, we could define different measures on the time axis and define the basis set based on this measure. Then we can keep track of the projection coefficient on this basis when observing new data points.
[TOC] Motivation S4 sequence model is rising in the sequence modelling field. It dominates on long sequence modelling over RNN, LSTM and transformers. It’s both mathematically elegant and useful, and it’s trending, so why not write about it.
