Microsoft Research: Injecting Recursive Hidden States Boosts Transformer Performance for Free
furongh · x · 2026-08-12
A Microsoft AI Frontiers team shared a new project on modifying transformer training to support recursive states. Specifically, during decoding time, the previous hidden state is fed into the input alongside the token embedding. The research shows this approach is easy to implement and boosts performance for free across all measures.
