Falcon3 Mamba 7B Instruct

Falcon3 Mamba 7B Instruct continues the original Falcon Mamba model with additional training. It uses a pure Mamba1 architecture rather than the attention-and-Mamba hybrid introduced by H1.

Compare recurrent and hybrid behavior

Practical guidance. Use this model to compare a pure state-space design with H1 on the same document task. Measure factual recall as well as throughput. A recurrent architecture's memory behavior does not establish reliable recall of every detail in an arbitrarily long input.
