## About

Linear Gated RNNs (Mamba, GateLoop, HGRN) form a novel class of sequence models which generalize and generalize linear recurrent
models such as S4, S5, LRU and RetNet, by employing data-controlled state transitions.
While having a low cost linear complexity inference mode, they can be trained extremely
efficient in parallel with logarithmic complexity making use of the highly optimized JAX
associative scan implementation. This repository implements a practical gated linear recurrent model with default
choices for input-, hidden- and gate activations and provides a drop-in replacement for causal multi-head-attention
and a linear gated RNN language model architecture. Furthermore, linear gated RNNs can be used to train true recurrent
models (GRU, LSTM) extremely fast by first training using associative scans and switching to a true recurrent mode
(by enabling recurrent weights) for finetuning.

## Installation

- `pip install flax-gated-linear-rnn`:

Other requirements:
- JAX 0.4.20+
- FLAX 0.8.0+

## Usage
We provide 2 main modules:
- ### [gated_linear_rnn.py](flax_gated_linear_rnn/gated_linear_rnn.py)
A causal time mixing sequence model which can be used as a drop-in replacement for causal multi-head-attention.
Usage:
```
import jax
import jax.numpy as jnp
from flax import linen as nn
from flax_gated_linear_rnn import GatedLinearRNN

batch_size, sequence_length, input_dim, d_h, d_model = 2, 64, 16, 32, 18
key = jax.random.PRNGKey(0)
x = jax.random.normal(key, (batch_size, sequence_length, input_dim))

model = GatedLinearRNN(
d_model=d_model,
d_h=d_h,
input_activation=nn.tanh,
hidden_activation=nn.tanh,
gate_activation=nn.sigmoid,
use_true_recurrence=False,
use_tied_gates=True,
)

params = model.init(jax.random.PRNGKey(1), x)
carry, y = model.apply(params, x, carry=None)
assert y.shape == (batch_size, sequence_length, d_model)
assert carry.shape == (batch_size, d_h)
```
`carry` holds the hidden model state, which can be used for fast linear complexity autoregressive inference.
#### Two Stage Training
- **Associative Recurrent Mode:** (`use_true_recurrence=False`) Extremely efficient training through associative scan. This disables the recurrent weights, allowing for much faster training compared to Transformer, GRU & LSTM.
- **True Recurrent Mode:** (`use_true_recurrence=True`) Can be used to train a more expressive model from a Linear Recurrent Model checkpoint. This variant introduces additional parameters such that the inputs and gates also depend on previous hidden states similar to GRU & LSTM. Due to the true recurrent nature, this mode cannot be parallelized and thus is less efficient. We recommend this for finetuning from an linear recurrent checkpoint.

#### Gate Tying
- **Disjoint Input & Forget gate** (`use_tied_gates=False`) Applies seperate projections for input- & forget gates
- **Tied Input & Forget gate** (`use_tied_gates=True`) Ties the input and forget gate through the relation `forget_gate = 1-input_gate`.

- ## [gated_linear_rnn_lm.py](flax_gated_linear_rnn/language_models/gated_linear_rnn_lm.py)
A GatedLinearRNN-based language model.

# Sample input
batch_size = 32
x = jax.random.randint(jax.random.PRNGKey(0), (batch_size, max_seq_length), 0, input_vocab_size)

# Initialize and apply model
params = model.init(jax.random.PRNGKey(2), x, training=False)
carry, y = model.apply(params, x, training=True, carry=None, rngs={'dropout': jax.random.PRNGKey(0)})
assert y.shape == (batch_size, max_seq_length, output_vocab_size)
assert carry.shape == (batch_size, n_layer, d_h)
```
`carry` holds the hidden GatedLinearRNN model states for all layers which can be used for fast linear complexity autoregressive inference.
