Soft-NBCE: Entropy-Weighted Chunk Fusion for Long-Context
Quick summary
arXiv:2606.01101v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The quadratic complexity of self-attention remains a bottleneck for Large Language Models (LLMs) processing ultra-long contexts. The Naive Bayes Cognitive Engine (NBCE) parallelizes long-context inference by chunking documents and routing to the lowest-entropy chunk at each decoding step. This hard-selection strategy causes semantic fragmentation during cross-chunk reasoning, as abrupt routing changes between adjacent tokens disrupt the model's contextual grounding. We present Soft-NBCE, a lightweight extension that replaces discrete ch

Why it matters
This model development creates a new option for users and a new testing obligation for developers. A fixed evaluation set comparing quality, cost and failure behavior is more useful than launch claims.
