Overview

Foundation models like GPT-4 have revolutionized the way AI systems encode and compress sequential data. This article introduces state-space models (SSMs) which closely align with how control theorists model dynamical systems. By integrating SSMs with deep neural networks, new pathways for improving sequence modeling in AI are developed.

Key Points:

• SSM frameworks have shown to perform better than Transformer-based models in certain tasks.
• Foundation models encode sequential data to learn data representation efficiently.
• Control theories and SSMs have natural synergy in modeling dynamic systems.

The inclusion of state space models in Foundational AI tools signifies a convergence of traditional control theory with modern machine learning architectures. This could further enhance the models’ abilities in various complex applications, including simulations and real-time decision-making scenarios.
