arXiv:2606. 08347v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern language models represent text using discrete token-level embeddings, which forces recurring multi-token patterns to be learned implicitly across Transformer layers.

Autoregressive (AR) language modeling is the dominant paradigm for text generation, yet its sequential token-by-token decoding makes inference memory-bound and inefficient. Existing acceleration approaches, such as speculative decoding and diffusion language models, can yield speedups under certain conditions but do not directly address high-load batch serving--the scenario most critical for industrial-scale deployment.

The paper introduces Hierarchical Hash Retrieval (HHR), a coarse‑to‑fine framework designed to improve hash‑based retrieval for large language models. HHR combines Geometry‑Aware Key Routing (GKR) to redistribute feature magnitudes and prune low‑logit keys, with Learned Hash Projection (LHP) to align Hamming distance with true query‑key relevance for fine‑grained retrieval. Experiments on diverse LLMs and benchmarks show that HHR outperforms existing methods, boosting LongBench scores by 1.10 points and achieving up to 3.30× decoding speedup at 128K context length for Llama‑3.1‑8B‑Instruct.

Matryoshka Hash Representations (MHR) propose a two‑stage quantization approach for retrieval‑augmented generation. First, a long binary code is learned; then, frozen, additional zero‑initialized residual adaptors are trained to produce searchable prefixes of varying byte budgets. Evaluated on MS MARCO and transferred to seven BEIR datasets, MHR achieves higher NDCG@10 and Recall@100 at 32‑byte budgets than baselines, especially in low‑budget regimes, and can also improve candidate shortlisting and graph‑index pruning.
