Tensorizing Engram: Sharing Latents Across N-Gram Embeddings is Beneficial in LLMs

arXiv:2606. 08347v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern language models represent text using discrete token-level embeddings, which forces recurring multi-token patterns to be learned implicitly across Transformer layers.

LLMs Need Encoders for Semantic IDs Too

arXiv:2606. 00324v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal LLMs use dedicated encoders to bridge non-language modalities (vision encoders for images, depth models for audio codec tokens) because raw token embeddings alone cannot capture modality-specific structure.

BitNet Text Embeddings

LLM-based text embedders have substantially improved retrieval and semantic representation quality, but their deployment remains costly: large backbone models slow down embedding inference, while high-dimensional full-precision embeddings impose substantial storage and bandwidth overhead on large-scale indexes. In this paper, we present BITEMBED, an extreme low-bit framework for LLM-based text embedding that jointly targets encoding efficiency and vector storage.
