Abstract

This paper proposes a principled hybrid architecture design for Transformers that improves retrieval and zero-shot long-context extrapolation.

Reality Card

Core Claim

The Head-wise Hybrid Architecture (HwH) retains strong language modeling while significantly enhancing retrieval and zero-shot long-context extrapolation compared to existing models.

Method / Result

HwH achieves a FA-to-LA ratio below 1:3, improving performance metrics over Transformer, LA, and a layer-wise hybrid baseline.

Limitations

The taxonomy derived from behavioral probes may not be comprehensive, potentially limiting the reproducibility of findings.
