SSOG-Attention: Sum Of Separable Gaussians as a sub-quadratic and scalable alternative to SDPA. [R]

4/10

​ Scaled dot-product attention (SDPA) computes its Attention by computing the similarity-scores of all image-tokens with all query tokens which results in O(N²·d) complexity. SSOG (Sum Of Separable Gaussians) instead learns a few Gaussian atoms for each head and only geometrically steers them based on the query token. Since the atoms can be factorized into a separable sum of Gaussians this leads to a reduced complexity of O(N·√N·d). Experiments show that SSOG clearly beats SDPA on small data (cifar100), and delivers equivalent performance and much faster convergence on bigger datasets like IN

a skill to strictly separate evals from the code you optimize (for autoresearch) - is it useful? [P]

3/10

In the last 6 month I was running a lot of autoresearch loops to train models for my research + as part of the startup I am in rn. After spending months on this, I now realize that loops is now the dominant way i approach any kind of development: from model training (which is what my research about), to just coding (through TDD), and even text writing (where the agent iterates on an LLM as a judge an a set of rules). It took me a while to converge to understand how to write the loops correctly, and what is my role in this exactly, so wanted to share my findings and hopefully get feedback! Th
