LQ-Compressed LPV Latent Rollouts

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.

Finite-Orbit Circulant State Core

Replace the linear state transition in a small recurrent or state-space module by a circulant matrix acting on a vector over a finite field. The hidden state then has only finitely many possible values and follows an exactly periodic orbit after at most \(q^n\) states, eliminating numerical drift on modular-counting and symbolic-memory tasks. A learned real-valued encoder and decoder can surround the discrete core, while the transition itself is fixed, searched, or trained with a…
