Replace or augment a deterministic recurrent hidden state with a stochastic Markov transition, then explicitly measure its entropy production and output memory time. Penalize operating points where the target changes faster than the hidden state can track at the available dissipation, while allowing the model to satisfy the bound either by increasing transition activity or by developing a longer-lived memory mode.
Replace or augment a recurrent hidden coordinate with a nonnegative bistable autocatalytic state driven by an external control signal. The cell retains information through metastable low and high states, while a periodic or slowly varying control produces a controlled phase lag and hysteresis useful for temporal regime detection. Explicit noise can be injected to test whether it enhances switching near the predicted intermediate-frequency regime.
Add a deterministic complex-valued state-space bank whose mode detunings become progressively smaller with mode index, Delta_n=c n^{-p}, while input couplings decay as B_n=b n^{-kappa}. For slowly varying or constant forcing, the summed state follows the paper's subresonant response and grows like t^{1-alpha}, providing controllable power-law memory with only O(N) recurrent state updates. This should improve long-context retention compared with a same-size unconstrained RNN or uniformly spaced…
Replace an opaque MLP vector field with a stack of trainable symbolic primitives that can express linear terms, monomials, products, and related analytic operations. Apply an L1 penalty and prune small primitive coefficients after rollout training, yielding a compact dynamics module that is cheaper to evaluate and easier to inspect.
Replace a directed sequence-memory chain with a circular recurrent state propagated by a learned delayed convolution. The same learned kernel can support forward and reverse replay because replay direction is a dynamical mode of the ring, rather than requiring plasticity to explicitly learn both forward and backward synapses.
