 ## Key Innovations
 
-1. **Temporal-Gated Linear Attention** — O(n) complexity via kernel trick (ELU+1 feature map) with learned temporal decay weighting per attention head
-2. **Compressive Memory Tokens** — Cross-attention bottleneck compresses full history into M fixed tokens
-3. **Dual-Branch with Adaptive Fusion** — Per-user gating balances long-term preferences and short-term intent
-4. **Multi-Scale Temporal Encoding** — Log-scaled time deltas + periodic components for daily/weekly patterns

+
+## Method Details
+
+### Temporal-Gated Linear Attention (TGLA)
+
+Standard linear attention uses kernel trick: `Attn = φ(Q)(φ(K)^T V) / φ(Q)φ(K)^T 1`
+
+TGLA adds learned temporal gating:
 ```
-K_gated = K ⊙ σ(W_decay · log(1 + Δt/3600))
+K_gated[t,h] = φ(K[t]) × σ(W_h · log(1 + Δt/3600))
 ```
-where `Δt` is the inter-action time gap and `W_decay` is learned per attention head.
 
-This gives O(n) complexity while explicitly modeling temporal dynamics — recent interactions get higher attention weight, with the decay rate learned per head.
+Each head h learns independent decay weights W_h, enabling multi-scale temporal modeling:
+- Head 1: fast decay → captures very recent behavior
+- Head 2: slow decay → captures long-term preferences
 
-## Based On
+Complexity: O(n·d²) vs O(n²·d) for standard attention.
+
+### Compressive Memory
+
+M learnable query tokens attend to the full TGLA-encoded sequence:
+```
+memory = CrossAttn(Q=learnable_queries, K=V=encoded_sequence)
+```
 
-- **HyTRec** (2602.18283) — Temporal-aware dual-branch architecture
-- **Rec2PM** (2602.11605) — Compressive memory as information bottleneck
-- **Linear Transformers** (Katharopoulos et al.) — Kernel-based linear attention
-- **SASRec** (1808.09781) — Self-attentive sequential recommendation baseline
+Acts as information bottleneck (per Rec2PM theory): forced compression denoises stochastic interactions and extracts stable preference signals.
 
-## Usage
+### Adaptive Fusion Gate
 
 ```python
-from model_v2 import MARSv2
-
-model = MARSv2(
-    num_items=10000,
-    embed_dim=64,
-    max_seq_len=2048,      # Handles very long sequences at O(n) cost
-    short_term_len=50,
-    num_memory_tokens=8,
-    num_long_layers=3,
-    num_short_layers=2,
-)
+gate = σ(MLP(concat(long_term, short_term, memory)))
+output = gate × long_term + (1 - gate) × short_term
 ```
+
+## Scaling Properties
+
+| Sequence Length | SASRec (O(n²)) | MARS (O(n)) |
+|----------------|-----------------|--------------|
+| 128 | ✓ Fast | ✓ Fast |
+| 512 | ✓ Moderate | ✓ Fast |
+| 2048 | ⚠ Slow | ✓ Fast |
+| 8192 | ✗ OOM | ✓ Fast |
+
+MARS's O(n) long-term branch enables processing sequences 10-100x longer than standard transformer-based models.

+## Key Innovations
+
+1. **Temporal-Gated Linear Attention (TGLA)** — O(n) complexity via kernel trick with learned per-head temporal decay. Each attention head learns different decay rates, capturing multi-scale temporal patterns (hourly, daily, weekly).
+
+2. **Compressive Memory Tokens** — Cross-attention compresses full history into M fixed tokens, acting as information bottleneck. Enables processing arbitrarily long sequences in constant memory.
+
+3. **Dual-Branch Adaptive Fusion** — Long-term (TGLA) captures preferences over thousands of interactions; Short-term (causal attention) captures recent intent. Per-user gating learns the optimal balance.
+
+4. **Multi-Scale Temporal Encoding** — Log-scaled inter-action time deltas + periodic sin/cos components for capturing daily/weekly/monthly behavioral cycles.

+### Temporal-Gated Linear Attention (TGLA)
+
+Standard linear attention uses kernel trick: `Attn = φ(Q)(φ(K)^T V) / φ(Q)φ(K)^T 1`
+
+TGLA adds learned temporal gating:
+```
+K_gated[t,h] = φ(K[t]) × σ(W_h · log(1 + Δt/3600))
+```
+
+Each head h learns independent decay weights W_h, enabling multi-scale temporal modeling:
+- Head 1: fast decay → captures very recent behavior
+- Head 2: slow decay → captures long-term preferences
+
+Complexity: O(n·d²) vs O(n²·d) for standard attention.
+
+### Compressive Memory
+
+M learnable query tokens attend to the full TGLA-encoded sequence:
+```
+memory = CrossAttn(Q=learnable_queries, K=V=encoded_sequence)
+```
+
+Acts as information bottleneck (per Rec2PM theory): forced compression denoises stochastic interactions and extracts stable preference signals.
+
+### Adaptive Fusion Gate
+
+```python
+gate = σ(MLP(concat(long_term, short_term, memory)))
+output = gate × long_term + (1 - gate) × short_term
+```
+
+## Scaling Properties
+
+| Sequence Length | SASRec (O(n²)) | MARS (O(n)) |
+|----------------|-----------------|--------------|
+| 128 | ✓ Fast | ✓ Fast |
+| 512 | ✓ Moderate | ✓ Fast |
+| 2048 | ⚠ Slow | ✓ Fast |
+| 8192 | ✗ OOM | ✓ Fast |
+
+MARS's O(n) long-term branch enables processing sequences 10-100x longer than standard transformer-based models.
