arXiv:2608. 10137v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Grammar Constrained Decoding (GCD) forces Language Models (LMs) to produce syntactically valid outputs by masking out non-conforming tokens at each step.

arXiv:2607. 17486v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) process increasingly longer prompts, computation and KV-cache memory costs have emerged as major bottlenecks in inference systems.

arXiv:2608. 04569v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hard prompt compression reduces long-context inference cost by independently scoring tokens, sentences, or chunks and retaining the highest-scoring units under a budget.

arXiv:2605. 17932v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Prompt compression reduces inference cost and context length in large language models, but prior evaluations focus mainly on autoregressive architectures.

arXiv:2606. 15521v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Tokenization introduces representational redundancy: under a fixed token vocabulary, every byte string admits many valid token encodings, or segmentations, that decode to the same surface string.

arXiv:2607. 16213v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) generate text autoregressively, relying on a key-value (KV) cache whose memory footprint grows linearly with context length, creating a major bottleneck.
