Low-bit attention accelerates Transformer inference by moving the $QK^\top$ and $PV$ matrix multiplications to FP8 or FP4 matrix engines. However, the softmax path often evaluates shifted-score expone...
arXiv:2605. 01910v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autoregressive decoding becomes bandwidth-limited at long contexts, as generating each token requires reading all $n_k$ key and value vectors from KV cache.
arXiv:2607. 03012v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video Diffusion Transformers (VDiTs) have demonstrated significant capabilities in high-fidelity video generation.
arXiv:2608. 12032v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video diffusion transformers are costly to sample: every denoising step applies self-attention over a long 3D token sequence, a quadratic cost that dominates as resolution and duration grow.
arXiv:2608. 06912v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The top-$k$ operation is a fundamental building block of modern sparse computation, enabling token routing, expert activation, memory selection, and attention pruning.
arXiv:2602. 01801v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autoregressive video diffusion models enable streaming generation, opening the door to long-form synthesis, video world models, and interactive neural game engines.
arXiv:2606. 23743v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern video diffusion models achieve higher generation quality through scaling, but this also increases inference cost.
arXiv:2606. 13392v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ultra-long-context capability is becoming indispensable for frontier LLMs: agentic workflows, repository-scale code reasoning, and persistent memory all require the model to jointly attend over hundreds of thousands to millions of tokens, yet the quadratic cost of softmax attention makes this untenable at deployment scale.
arXiv:2606. 01790v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-model-based graphical user interface (GUI) agents have shown broad automation capabilities, yet deployment is bottlenecked by a key-value (KV) cache that grows linearly with interaction steps.
arXiv:2607. 24377v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The quadratic cost of attention is a major bottleneck in diffusion-based video generation models.
arXiv:2609.06712v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) achieve strong video generation quality, but their dense spatiotemporal self-attention scales quadratically with sequ...
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.
