Scalable Machines with Intrinsic Higher Mental-State Dynamics
Drawing on recent breakthroughs in cellular neurobiology and detailed biophysical modeling linking neocortical pyramidal neurons to distinct mental-state regimes, this work introduces a mathematically grounded formulation showing how models (e.g., Transformers) can implement computational principles underlying awake imaginative thought to pre-select relevant information before attention is applied via triadic modulation loops among queries ($Q$), keys ($K$), and values ($V$).~Scalability experiments on ImageNet-1K, benchmarked against a standard Vision Transformer (ViT), demonstrate significantly faster learning with reduced computational demand (fewer […]
