I'm writing a NeurIPS paper about a new model architecture for processing and generating long texts. Here are some facts about the paper:
* The main trick is to replace some of the attention heads with an exponential moving average, where the decay rate is learned for each head. We call this architecture ExeMA.
* On language modeling, the perplexity difference between our model and a vanilla transformer is negligible, but that's because next-token prediction is almost always a local task, so perplexity won't be sensitive enough to detect any improvements in long-range understanding.
* However, on the SCROLLS benchmark, our model improves by 10% over the baseline.
* We also have a new metric for measuring coherence in generated text (CoGnaTe), where our model generates text that is 43% more coherent than the baseline.
Help me write the paper's introduction.

Introduction
:
\n
In
recent
years
,
transform
er
-
based
language
models
have
achieved
state
-
of
-
the
-
art
results
in
a
wide
range
of
natural
language
processing
(
N
LP
)
tasks
.
However
,
these
models
are
not
without
their
limitations
.
One
of
the
main
challeng
es
is
their
in
ability
to
effectively
capture
long
-
range
dependencies
in
text
,
leading
to
reduced
coh
er
ence
and
read
ability
in
generated
text
.
\n
To
address
this
challenge
,
we
propose
a
novel
architecture
called
Ex
e
MA
,
which
rep
laces
some
of
the
attention
heads
in
a
transform
er
model
with
an
exponential
moving
average
(
EMA
).
By
learning
the
decay
rate
for
each
head
,
Ex
e
MA
is
able
to
adapt
ively
weight
the
importance
of
different
parts
of
the
input
sequence
,
allowing
it
to
capture
both
local
and
long
-
range
dependencies
.
\n
We
evaluate
Ex
e
MA
on
two
benchmark
s
:
language
model
ing
and
text
generation
.
Our
results
show
that
Ex
e
MA
ach
ieves

differences
compared
to
a
van
illa
transform

language
model
ing
tasks
,
but
demonstr

significant
improvements
on
the
SC
RO
LL
S
benchmark
,
impro
ving
by
1
0
%
over
the
bas
eline
.
Additionally
,
we
introduce
a
new
metric
for
meas
uring
coh
er
ence
in
generated
text
,
called
Co
G
na
Te
,
which
shows
that
Ex
e
MA
generates
text
that
is
4
3
%
more
coh
er
ent
than
the
bas
eline
.
\n
Over
all
,
our
experiments
demonstrate
the
effect
iveness
of
Ex
e
MA
in
impro
ving
the
performance
of
transform
er
-
based
language
models
on
long

range
dependencies
,
and
its
potential
to
generate
more
coh
er
ent
and
readable
text
.
In
the
following
sections
,
we
provide
a
more
detailed
explanation
of
our
method
and
results
,
as
well
as
discuss
the
imp
lications
of
our
find
ings
for
future
research
in
N

.
