Use the local Jacobian of a looped transformer to estimate its remaining relaxation time and stop the recurrent computation when the predicted residual reduction is sufficient. Near a saddle-node fold, the paper's asymptotic relation converts an estimated dominant eigenvalue into a compute forecast, allowing dynamic iteration budgets instead of a conservative fixed maximum.
Attach a learned controller to a physical or simulated plant and use a continuous safety certificate to compute a conservative remaining-time budget before the current action or latent prediction can become unsafe. Compile this spatial margin into a unit-rate temporal contract, allowing asynchronous inference, batching, or early execution without online rollout integration; trigger a new network evaluation only when the countdown reaches a guard threshold.
Treat a change in a neural network mask, expert set, layer width, or adapter configuration as an optimal transition problem rather than an instantaneous switch. A cheap planner proposes a short sequence of topology masks and parameter interpolations, while an expensive forward-pass feasibility filter rejects each candidate intermediate model if it violates accuracy, activation, norm, latency, or memory limits. This permits dynamic pruning and MoE reconfiguration with a certificate that the…
Attach a certificate to a cached transformer KV state or recurrent latent state and refresh it only while its predicted certificate remains inside a latency-contracted admissible region. The controller uses a bound on certificate drift to guarantee that the state will remain admissible throughout the next sampling, communication, and execution delay, reducing unnecessary recomputation while exposing a measurable refresh boundary.
Add a per-feature or per-token state that accumulates recent stimulation and decays when stimulation is absent, then use a nonlinear decreasing gain to suppress repeatedly activated features. This creates short-term adaptation without changing the core transformer or recurrent weights: familiar inputs are processed with reduced gain, while novel inputs recover their full response.
Replace a neural sequence model's unconstrained multi-step latent rollout with a data-driven LPV predictor acting on a learned latent state. Build the predictor from Hankel matrices of past latent observations, inputs, and scheduling features, then use an LQ factorization to project the large data coefficient matrix into a fixed-dimensional coordinate system. The model preserves scheduling-conditioned dynamics while making rollout cost independent of the number of training trajectories.
Compress the hidden state of a stable neural state-space layer using low-rank controllability and observability Gramians. States that are difficult to excite from the input or weakly visible at the output are removed, producing a smaller recurrent state with a principled input-output preservation criterion.
