arXiv:2607. 08690v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speculative decoding accelerates sampling from an autoregressive LLM by using a faster auxiliary model to draft tokens which are then verified in parallel by the LLM.

Speculative decoding has significantly accelerated Large Language Model (LLM) inference by alleviating memory-bound bottlenecks. However, traditional speculative decoding typically relies on auxiliary draft modules, incurring significant training and communication overhead.
