💡 ML Concept of the Day: SSMs Beyond LanguageThroughout this series, we have explored the fundamentals latest research in state space models(SSMs) as one of the main alternatives to transformer architectures. SSMs provide a more efficient scaling mechanism than transformers which makes it ideal for models with large context windows. Given the state of the market, the core focus on SSMs have been in LLMs but, surprisingly, some of the core applications of SSMs are surfacing in other modalities. Take audio, for instance, SSMs have emerged as one 3of the most efficient techniques in this modality given its efficiency processing continuous irregular continuous data. Models like AudioMamba , RawMamba and some of the work done by Cartesia are great examples of SSMs applied to audio...
