Weighted State Souping for Efficient Long-Context Retrieval
This paper was accepted at the Workshop on Personalized, Aligned, Long-term Memory for AI Systems (PALM) at NeurIPS 2026. State space models (SSMs) combine fast inference and fixed state size with competitive language-modeling performance. Recently, state souping has been proposed as a procedure whereby an SSM independently encodes chunks of tokens like documents, tool definitions, or memory records. The resulting state encodings may be cached and recombined to cheaply construct a context for downstream queries. However, both state souping and vanilla SSMs deteriorate on long, crowded...
