Thought-Aware KV Cache Compaction for Reasoning via Adaptive Attention Matching

arXiv:2608. 12331v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reasoning language models generate lengthy chain-of-thought (CoT) sequences whose key-value (KV) cache grows linearly and becomes a memory bottleneck during decoding.

Fewer Tokens, Smaller Cache: Reward-Coordinated Efficient Reasoning

arXiv:2608. 04771v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) excel on complex tasks through long chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning, but their lengthy intermediate steps cause severe overthinking that inflates inference cost.

Fewer Tokens, Smaller Cache: Reward-Coordinated Efficient Reasoning

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) excel on complex tasks through long chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning, but their lengthy intermediate steps cause severe overthinking that inflates inference cost. KV-cache compression is a common solution, yet existing reasoning-oriented methods apply a uniform policy across the trajectory and judge compression only by what it removes from the cache.

What to Keep, What to Forget: A Rate--Distortion View of Memory Compaction in LLMs and Agents

arXiv:2607. 08032v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models, and the agents built on them, spend an ever-growing share of their compute and memory on remembering: caching attention keys and values, carrying long prompts, maintaining recurrent state, and storing what happened in previous turns and sessions.
