Long Text Modeling

Long text modeling focuses on developing techniques that allow large language models (LLMs) to effectively process and understand documents exceeding the typical length limitations of current architectures. Research currently emphasizes methods to overcome the computational challenges of long sequences, such as employing external memory mechanisms, chunking strategies combined with recurrent or attention-based architectures, and high-resolution processing of visual documents. These advancements are crucial for improving performance in tasks like question answering, summarization, and code generation, ultimately impacting various fields requiring analysis of extensive textual data.
