Memoria: Resolving Fateful Forgetting Problem through Human-Inspired Memory Architecture

Transformer-based models still face the structural limitation of fixed context length in processing long sequence input despite their effectiveness in various fields. While various external memory techniques were introduced, most previous techniques fail to avoid fateful forgetting, where even the most important memories are inevitably forgotten after a sufficient number of time steps. We designed Memoria, a memory system for artificial neural networks, drawing inspiration from humans and applying various neuroscientific and psychological theories related to memory. Experimentally, we demonstrated …
