arXiv:2606.13694v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mobile sleep staging serves as a foundational infrastructure for in-home sleep monitoring and closed-loop modulation. But existing sequential models such as RNNs and Transformers are computationally expensive for mobile deployment. In this paper, we propose Random Attention (RA), a lightweight temporal modeling module based on fixed random projections, which replaces learnable sequence modeling with similarity-based aggregation. RA introduces little additional parameters beyond the epoch encoder while enabling effective temporal smoothing. We f
The proliferation of AI models for consumer devices drives the need for computationally efficient architectures, making lightweight solutions like Random Attention relevant now.
This development could enable more widespread deployment of advanced AI functionalities on mobile and edge devices, reducing reliance on cloud computing for certain applications.
Mobile AI applications, particularly those requiring continuous temporal processing like health monitoring, can now be developed with significantly lower computational overhead.
