Architecture Innovation

TrueEvolvingAttention Mechanism

# TEMPORAL EVOLUTION (RECURRENT) - replaces position embeddings
for pos in range(seq_len):
    evolution_factor = self.evolution_rate * (pos + 1) * (self.layer_idx + 1)
    temporal_weight = torch.sin(evolution_factor * self.evolution_weights)
    
    # Recurrent memory update
    pos_q = q[:, :, pos, :] + temporal_weight + self.memory_decay * current_memory
    pos_k = k[:, :, pos, :] + temporal_weight + self.memory_decay * current_memory * 0.5
    
    # Update memory for next position
    current_memory = pos_q

Key Components

1. Sin-based Temporal Weights: torch.sin(evolution_factor * evolution_weights)

   • Avoids saturation unlike tanh
   • Provides distinct positional signals for long sequences

2. Recurrent Memory Updates: current_memory = pos_q

   • Token-by-token memory evolution
   • Maintains dynamic context throughout sequence

3. Layer-aware Evolution: evolution_factor = rate * (pos + 1) * (layer_idx + 1)

   • Different temporal dynamics per layer
   • Hierarchical positional encoding

Methodology

• Model: TrueEvolvingTransformer (256d, 6l, 8heads)
• Sequence Lengths: 512, 1024, 2048, 3072, 4096, 5120 tokens
• Key Innovation: NO position embeddings - only temporal evolution
• Training: 10 epochs per sequence length
• Dataset: Shakespeare text with GPT-2 tokenizer
