arXiv:2606. 30389v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Dynamic sparse attention (DSA) accelerates long-context LLM decoding by attending to only the top-K KV blocks relevant to each query, but it introduces a serialized selection-to-attention dependency that emerges as a new latency bottleneck.
arXiv:2504. 17768v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Sparse attention offers a promising strategy to extend long-context capabilities in Transformer LLMs, yet its efficiency-accuracy trade-offs remain unclear due to the lack of comprehensive evaluation.
arXiv:2606. 24957v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While speculative decoding improves inference throughput for multi-batch long-context Large Language Models (LLMs), its efficiency is often limited by a verification bottleneck where Key-Value (KV) cache loading dominates latency.
arXiv:2508. 18224v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advances in sparse attention mechanisms have demonstrated strong potential for reducing the computational cost of long-context training and inference in large language models (LLMs).
arXiv:2604. 20920v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Sparse attention can reduce the cost of long-context inference, but most variants introduce new architectural components.
arXiv:2602. 07223v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Long-context large language model (LLM) inference has become the norm for today's AI applications.
arXiv:2603. 00198v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Token reduction accelerates long-video vision--language models (VLMs), but existing methods target Transformers, where reduction is treated as token pruning.
arXiv:2606. 09508v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing sparse attention and KV cache compression methods for long-context LLM inference typically apply fixed sparsity patterns or uniform budgets across all attention heads, overlooking the substantial variation in attention behavior among heads and contexts.
arXiv:2601. 03043v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) demonstrate strong capabilities across a wide range of complex tasks and are increasingly deployed at scale, placing significant demands on inference efficiency.
arXiv:2608. 11519v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Full self-attention is a strong token mixer for PDE surrogates on irregular domains, but its quadratic cost limits its use on high-resolution problems.
arXiv:2606. 18096v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Structured State Space Models (SSMs), including the S4 and S4D architectures, have recently emerged as powerful alternatives to attention-based models for capturing long-range dependencies in sequential data.
arXiv:2605. 16928v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Long-context inference in large language models is bottlenecked by the quadratic cost of full attention.
arXiv:2608. 15592v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Efficient LLM serving is often bottlenecked by the need to pad sequences to a fixed maximum length, and this wastes compute and degrades throughput.
