arXiv:2608.30252v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-context LLM applications such as document summarization and multi-turn agents require generation from prefixes spanning tens of thousands of token...
arXiv:2609.17943v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-context LLM inference is bottlenecked by attention, whose repeated KV-cache reads make decoding memory-bound. Self-speculative decoding alleviates...
arXiv:2608. 26004v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agentic LLM pipelines face escalating inference costs as context accumulates across retrieval, tool use, and multi-turn interactions.
arXiv:2512. 22420v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Speculative decoding (SD) accelerates LLM inference by verifying draft tokens in parallel.
Speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive generation by having a cheap draft propose tokens that a target verifies in parallel. Frontier models increasingly ship a built-in Multi-Token-Prediction (MTP/NEXTN) draft head under the assumption that the draft is negligibly cheap.
arXiv:2606. 01019v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) generation remains expensive because autoregressive decoding calls the model once for each new token.
arXiv:2606. 00144v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speculative decoding speeds up autoregressive decoding by using a drafter to propose multiple tokens that a verifier validates in parallel.
Speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive language model inference by using a cheap drafter to propose multiple future tokens and a target model to verify them. A common design goal is therefore to improve draft quality while reducing auxiliary parameters and systems overhead.

arXiv:2607. 05147v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Speculative decoding accelerates Large Language Model (LLM) inference by decoupling draft generation from target verification.
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.
