Core Concepts
SiMBA introduces a new architecture combining EinFFT for channel modeling and Mamba for sequence modeling, outperforming existing SSMs and bridging the performance gap with transformers.
Abstract
The article discusses the introduction of SiMBA, a novel architecture that combines Einstein FFT (EinFFT) for channel modeling and Mamba for sequence modeling. It addresses issues with attention networks by providing stability in handling longer sequences efficiently. The content covers the evolution of language models, the challenges faced by attention networks, state space models like S4, and the emergence of various SSMs to handle long-range dependencies. SiMBA is highlighted as a state-of-the-art SSM on ImageNet and transfer learning benchmarks. The article also includes detailed explanations of EinFFT for channel modeling and Mamba-based sequence modeling.
