Replace an unconstrained high-order polynomial interaction module with features generated by Gaussian matrix contractions and their exact Wick expansion. The resulting interactions are sums of products of power-sum invariants, with coefficients fixed by perfect-matching counts, providing a low-parameter inductive bias for permutation- or orthogonal-structured data.
Use a constant-sum point vector to encode ordered pairwise outcomes and train a neural scorer with an adjacent-categories ordinal likelihood whose slope parameters are tied to those points. The accumulated point score is then a theoretically motivated compressed statistic for repeated comparisons, rather than an arbitrary regression target or one-hot label.
Represent candidate two-dimensional attention windows as dyadic rectangles and penalize local regions where many deeply embedded windows overlap. Use complementary horizontal and vertical depth exponents rather than independently penalizing one coordinate. The resulting router should reduce pathological concentration of sparse attention computation while preserving access to multiscale context.
Treat a recurrent or state-space layer as a finite-state Markov cocycle and constrain optimizer steps using the paper's inverse-logarithmic sensitivity of Lyapunov exponents near a zero exponent gap. Instead of enforcing a crude spectral-norm bound, allow updates that are harmless for long-run growth while shrinking steps that could substantially change the recurrent stability profile.
