What changed
Computed attention through a learned difference of two softmax maps, seeking to suppress irrelevant context while improving retrieval and language-model behavior in reported experiments.
Scientific scope
Computed attention through a learned difference of two softmax maps, seeking to suppress irrelevant context while improving retrieval and language-model behavior in reported experiments. Noise cancellation is an architectural intuition and empirical finding, not universal elimination of hallucinations or attention error. Subtractive attention changes the architecture and is not exact dense-attention acceleration.
Evidence
The linked original sources describe the stated contribution and its evidence limits. WRS has not independently rerun the experiments or certified a proof. Noise cancellation is an architectural intuition and empirical finding, not universal elimination of hallucinations or attention error. Subtractive attention changes the architecture and is not exact dense-attention acceleration.
