arXiv:2606. 00535v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Speculative decoding (SD) has proven to be an effective technique for accelerating autoregressive generation in large language models (LLMs) however, its application to vision-language models (VLMs) remains relatively unexplored.
arXiv:2608. 10362v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive large language model (LLM) inference by using a lightweight draft model to speculate multiple tokens, reducing expensive target model decoding steps.
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.
