In practice, earlier linear-attention models have trailed Transformers in language-modeling quality and rarely ran faster on real hardware. The authors close this gap with TransNormerLLM, a redesigned version of their TransNormer… 2. **[Lightning Attention-2: A Free Lunch for Handling Unlimited Sequence Lengths in Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/qin-2024-lightning-attention-2-free/)** *(2024 · 31 citations)* Linear attention should cost O(n) instead of the O(n²) of softmax attention. In causal language modeling, however, existing implementations lose this advantage: the kernel trick needs a cumulative summation (cumsum) that parallelizes poorly on GPUs. Lightning Attention-1 had already reduced the memory-I/O bottleneck… ## All works 3 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 2 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1.
