arXiv:2607. 08786v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: With the growing deployment of large language models (LLMs), LLM inference cost has become a key challenge.
arXiv:2608. 01536v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) increasingly rely on sparsity to reduce inference cost, but most prior work targets a single sparsity source-either weight or activation-and optimizes for batched multi-user inference.
arXiv:2607. 21985v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The increasing deployment of large language models (LLMs) has magnified the computational and memory bottlenecks of autoregressive decoding, where low compute intensity and bandwidth-bound kernels dominate inference cost.
arXiv:2606. 10445v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Semi-structured 2:4 sparsity is widely supported by modern accelerators, providing up to a 2x theoretical speedup.
Semi-structured 2:4 sparsity is widely supported by modern accelerators, providing up to a 2x theoretical speedup. However, its strict 50% sparsity constraint often causes non-negligible accuracy degradation under post-training pruning.
arXiv:2608. 05033v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse matrix kernels are fundamental to scientific computing, graph analytics, and machine learning.
arXiv:2608. 15602v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While binary quantization theoretically promises extreme compression and acceleration for Large Language Models (LLMs), existing research often overlooks the necessity of specialized hardware kernels, thus failing to unleash the full acceleration potential due to persistent reliance on expensive floating-point arithmetic or runtime dequantization overheads.
arXiv:2603. 29002v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern large language models (LLMs) increasingly depends on efficient long-context processing and generation mechanisms, including sparse attention, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and compressed contextual memory, to support complex reasoning.
arXiv:2607. 16241v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent large language models (LLMs) can generate custom CUDA kernels that appear to outperform PyTorch on benchmarks such as KernelBench.
arXiv:2607. 25504v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Fine-grained weight pruning and activation sparsification have emerged as effective approaches for reducing the compute and memory cost of inference for Transformer models.
arXiv:2606. 09080v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Pruning has emerged as a dominant paradigm for accelerating large language model (LLM) inference, spanning a broad spectrum of methods that remove computation across tokens, layers, heads, dimensions, and attention patterns.
arXiv:2606. 01117v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Extreme multi-label classification (XMC) involves learning models over large output spaces with millions of labels, making the output layer a memory-compute bottleneck.
arXiv:2601. 16622v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Equivariant Graph Neural Networks (EGNNs) have become a widely used approach for modeling 3D atomistic systems.
