Trained Persistent Memory for Frozen Decoder-Only LLMs
Hong Jeong
Decoder-only language models are stateless: hidden representations are discarded after every forward pass and nothing persists across sessions. Jeong (2026a) showed that trained me…
Trained Persistent Memory for Frozen Encoder--Decoder LLMs: Six Architectural Methods
Hong Jeong
Frozen encoder--decoder language models are stateless: the latent representation is discarded after every forward pass, so no information persists across sessions. This paper prese…
A Miniature Brain Transformer: Thalamic Gating, Hippocampal Lateralization, Amygdaloid Salience, and Prefrontal Working Memory in Attention-Coupled Latent Memory
Hong Jeong
We present a miniature brain transformer architecture that extends the attention-coupled latent memory framework with four additional brain-region analogues: a thalamic relay, an a…
Inhibitory Cross-Talk Enables Functional Lateralization in Attention-Coupled Latent Memory
Hong Jeong
We present a memory-augmented transformer in which attention serves simultaneously as a retrieval, consolidation, and write-back operator. The core update, , re-groun…
