Contextual Correction of Parallel Draftsfor Speculative Decoding

The paper introduces DCOCO (DFlash Contextual Corrector), a lightweight mechanism that restores intra-block dependencies in speculative decoding by evaluating multiple candidate tokens for contextual compatibility across adjacent draft positions. DCOCO maintains parallel drafting while enabling contextually informed token selection at low additional cost. Across multiple verifier backbones and benchmarks, DCOCO achieves the highest average throughput, delivering speedups of up to 6.6× over vanilla decoding and outperforming competing methods by 6–23% under concurrent serving loads.

Closing the Loop: Practical Training Recipes for Looped Language Models

The paper presents practical training recipes for looped language models, showing that a compute‑efficient pipeline can reduce the training budget from 7.7 T tokens to 310 B tokens while maintaining strong reasoning performance. In controlled experiments, a 1.4 B LoopLM outperforms a parameter‑matched dense model on 12 benchmarks, achieving significant gains on GSM8K, MATH, and DROP, and approaches a 3.9 B dense model at matched inference compute. The authors also provide a minimal recipe to convert pretrained dense models into looped ones, demonstrating improvements on Qwen3‑1.7B‑Base across multiple data regimes.

One Model to Loop Them All: Elastic Latent Recurrence for Language Models

The paper introduces Elastic Latent Recurrence (ELR), a training recipe that enables looped language models to match the accuracy of non-recurrent models at a single loop while allowing additional loops to improve accuracy with more compute. ELR achieves this through gated state updates with learned step sizes, mixed loop counts during training, and conditioning on loop index and budget. The method also reduces training and inference overhead in Mixture-of-Experts models and produces a single checkpoint, Koi‑4B, that performs competitively with state‑of‑the‑art models on multiple benchmarks.
