Here's my try:


We introduce Simplified State Space Layers for Sequence Modeling, which are designed to improve performance on long-range sequence modeling tasks. The S5 layer builds on the S4 layer by using one multi-input, multi-output (MIMO) SSM instead of many independent single-input, single-output (SISO) SSMs, and an efficient parallel scan. This results in a state space layer that can match the computational efficiency of S4 while achieving state-of-the-art performance on several long-range sequence modeling tasks. We compare empirically the performance of the S5 layer to the S4 layer and other baseline methods on the Long Range Arena benchmark, showing that the S5 layer matches the performance and efficiency of the S4 layer, with the highest score among all models on the Path-X task.

We also introduce Simplified State Space Layers for Sequence Modeling, which are designed to improve performance on raw speech classification tasks. The S5 layer builds on the S4 layer by using one multi-input, multi-output (MIMO) SSM instead of many independent single-input, single-output (SISO) SSMs, and an efficient parallel scan. This results in a state space layer that can match the computational efficiency of S4 while achieving state-of-the-art performance on several raw speech classification tasks. We compare empirically the performance of the S5 layer to the S4 layer and other baseline methods on the LibriSpeech benchmark, showing that the S5 layer matches the performance and efficiency of the S4 layer, with the highest score among all models on the 100-hour task.

We also introduce Simplified State Space Layers for Sequence Modeling, which are designed to improve performance on text generation tasks. The S5 layer builds on the S4 layer by using one multi-input, multi-output (MIMO) SSM instead of many independent single-input, single-output (SISO) SSMs, and an efficient parallel scan. This results in a state space layer that can match the computational efficiency of S4 while achieving state-of-the-art performance on several text generation tasks. We compare empirically the performance of the S5 layer to the S4 layer and other baseline methods on the GPT-2 benchmark, showing that the S5 layer matches the performance and efficiency of the S4 layer, with the highest score among all models on the 100-hour task.

Overall, our experiments demonstrate that Simplified State Space Layers are a powerful tool for building efficient and effective sequence modeling architectures, and we hope they will inspire further research in this direction.
