ASPIRE introduces a non‑synchronized batched self‑speculative decoding framework for long‑context LLM inference, addressing the memory bottleneck of attention by drafting tokens with sparse attention and verifying them with full attention. It combines a unified mixed forward pass, a lightweight online speculation scheduler that lets each request independently decide when to verify, and an intra‑draft refresh layer that updates the sparse context at every draft step. Experiments on three models and five benchmarks show 1.70–4.58× speedup over autoregressive baselines and a 27% average improvement over the strongest prior self‑speculative methods.

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.
