arXiv:2606. 29223v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autoregressive LLM decoding evaluates every generated token through the full layer stack, even though many tokens become predictable at intermediate depths.
arXiv:2608. 15062v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Scaling transformer language models creates an inherent tension between expressivity and memory efficiency.
arXiv:2606. 16112v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Residual architectures are ubiquitous in deep learning, but they suffer from a subtle structural limitation: the norm of the residual stream can grow rapidly with depth.
arXiv:2606. 00144v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speculative decoding speeds up autoregressive decoding by using a drafter to propose multiple tokens that a verifier validates in parallel.
arXiv:2602. 20217v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Self-speculative decoding (SSD) accelerates LLM inference by skipping layers to create an efficient draft model, yet existing methods often rely on static heuristics that ignore the dynamic computational overhead of attention in long-context scenarios.
arXiv:2607. 06523v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-context language model inference is increasingly limited by the memory bandwidth and capacity required to store key-value caches, yet existing compression methods often apply uniform budgets across layers or tokens and degrade retrieval when lexical cues and semantic states require different preservation.
arXiv:2607. 09693v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has become the dominant paradigm for improving the reasoning capabilities of large language models, but it requires expensive training, curated data, and reward signals.
arXiv:2606. 12243v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speculative decoding (SD) addresses the high inference costs of LLMs by having lightweight drafters generate candidates for large verifiers to validate in parallel.
arXiv:2608. 12385v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: As large language models serve ever more requests, cumulative inference cost is growing relative to the one-time cost of training.
arXiv:2607. 14427v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A depth-recurrent transformer applies a weight-tied core a variable number of times, and prior work has shown that training with a randomized recursion count yields one checkpoint usable across a range of inference depths.
arXiv:2606. 09514v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) incur high inference cost due to their depth and parameter scale.
arXiv:2606. 26744v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present HyperDFlash, a block-parallel speculative decoding framework tailored to the novel multi-hyper-connection (MHC) architecture proposed by DeepSeek-V4.
arXiv:2607. 20519v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Looped Transformers increase test-time computation by repeatedly applying a shared recurrent block.
