arXiv:2606.21295v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing sequence models, including RNNs, LSTMs, continuous-time networks, and Transformers, share a common structural principle: layer-wise dynamics, where all neurons in the same layer co-evolve through a shared parameterized operator, leaving individual neurons no freedom to evolve independently. Yet in many complex dynamical systems, rich global behavior emerges precisely from locally evolving units interacting through structured connectivity. Inspired by this principle, we introduce Topological Neural Dynamics (TND), a sequence mod
This research is emerging as AI sequence modeling approaches inherent limitations and new paradigms for dynamic system emulation are explored.
The introduction of Topological Neural Dynamics (TND) offers a potentially more efficient and biologically inspired approach to sequence modeling, moving beyond current layer-wise limitations.
Traditional sequence models' reliance on layer-wise dynamics is being challenged by a neuron-wise framework, enabling richer emergent behaviors from local interactions.
