摘要
Self-attention has become the standard for modern sequence modeling, enabling Transformers to model long-range dependencies across a wide range of modalities. Despite these advances, its quadratic cost with respect to sequence length remains a significant computational bottleneck. Recent work addresses this limitation by introducing linear variants of self-attention, namely with kernel approximations of the softmax operator. However, their first-order aggregation restricts expressivity and struggles to capture higher-order structure. We propose Linear Stochastic Attention (LiSA), a linear attention plug-in module that enables higher-order token interactions via a stochastic diffusion process based on truncated random walks. LiSA incorporates adaptive locality, favoring semantically similar neighbors to preserve fine-grained structures, while maintaining stable and efficient training. We conduct extensive experiments on classification, semantic segmentation, and object detection tasks and show improved results over state-of-the-art methods.
