HELM: Hyperbolic Large Language Models via Mixture-of-Curvature Experts

Published in preprint, under review, 2025

This paper propose a framework for a family of hyperbolic LLMs, including a mixture-of-curvature experts module where each expert operates in a distinct curvature space, hyperbolic Multi-Head Latent Attention mechanism, and hyperbolic rotary positional encoding.

Position: Beyond Euclidean – Foundation Models Should Embrace Non-Euclidean Geometries

Published in preprint, under review, 2025

This paper argues for the necessity of incoporating non-Euclidean geometry into foundation models design, with arguments grounded in both theoretics and pratical considerations
