Thank you so much for the feature, awesome read! Considering that I barely told you anything and almost simply sent you the arxiv link, I am very impressed by your understanding (which also proves that the paper can't be written too badly :D). Looking forward to.give Comply even more future!
Both your post and the paper you refer to* but never quite get around to explicitly defining the term / procedure "Comply."
You mention it is a "Bio-Inspired NLP." But natural language processing (NLP) is a broad field so maybe Comply is an NLP technique?
Likely it is short for "Complex Numbers for Positional Encoding (Comply)," because the phrase occurs near the term in both papers, but it is unclear if the term is just a shorthand or in-house jargon OR if it refers to a method / procedure developed by someone somewhere who could perhaps be cited? [Maybe Alexei Figueroa & Justus Westerhoff et. al.?*]
Your post is a complex read of an even more complex papers, so, thanks indeed for your much appreciated detailed TL;DR section!

Great work and I'm excited to see where you take it
Great one!
Thank you

Cheers,
Comply is a neologism made up of complex and fly, while at the same time hinting at the fact that this method "complies" with nature :)
Great one!
Great read Devansh!!
