Here we examine the bounds on error and how error scales when models operate outside of their expressivity regimes using a Lie-algebraic control perspective. Our theory formulates a correspondence between the depth of a sequence model and the tower of Lie algebra extensions. Echoing recent theoretical studies, we characterize the Lie-algebraic class of consta
The continuous push for more efficient and scalable AI models, particularly for sequential data, drives theoretical exploration into architectural limitations and optimizations.
Understanding the fundamental mathematical reasons behind the performance and expressivity of sequence models is crucial for future AI development, enabling more informed architectural choices.
This research provides a deeper theoretical framework for why depth is critical in parallelizable sequence models, moving beyond empirical observations to foundational principles.
