Introduced by Andis Draguns et al. in Residual Shuffle-Exchange Networks for Fast Processing of Long Sequences

archive 2025-07-28 Description, source and code snippet are the archive's method entry.

The Beneš block is a computation-efficient alternative to dense attention, enabling the modelling of long-range dependencies in O(n log n) time. In comparison, dense attention which is commonly used in Transformers has O(n^2) complexity.

In music, dependencies occur on several scales, including on a coarse scale which requires processing very long sequences. Beneš blocks have been used in Residual Shuffle-Exchange Networks to achieve state-of-the-art results in music transcription.

Beneš blocks have a ‘receptive field’ of the size of the whole sequence, and it has no bottleneck. These properties hold for dense attention but have not been shown for many sparse attention and dilated convolutional architectures.

Papers per year the archive tags with this method, by the paper's archive date (5 dated). Bars are counts, not a trend claim.

Components: the archive holds no method-to-method composition, so PwC's Components table cannot be rebuilt; the Papers list carries no Results column for the same reason (the archive does not join its leaderboard rows to method tags).
