MambaMixer2

Bases: MambaBase, PluggableLayer

Compute ∆, A, B, C, and D the state space parameters and compute the contextualized_states. A, D are input independent (see Mamba paper [1] Section 3.5.2 "Interpretation of A" for why A isn't selective) ∆, B, C are input-dependent (this is a key difference between Mamba and the linear time invariant S4, and is why Mamba is called selective state spaces)
