Attention mechanisms that confer selective focus on a strict subset of input elements are nearly ubiquitous in language models today. We posit there to be downside to the use of attention: most input information is lost. In support of this…

Learning a sequence of tasks without access to i.i.d. observations is a widely studied form of continual learning (CL) that remains challenging. In principle, Bayesian learning directly applies to this setting, since recursive and one-off…

Monads provide a simple and concise interface to user-defined computational effects in functional programming languages. This enables equational reasoning about effects, abstraction over monadic interfaces and the development of monad…
