arXiv:2607. 01792v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While decoder-only LLMs excel at a vast array of natural language tasks, it suffers from an asymmetric information flow induced by causal attention: later tokens are richer in contextual grounding than earlier ones.

arXiv:2606. 29563v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) excel at complex tasks like question answering and summarization, thanks to their ability to handle long-context inputs.

arXiv:2608. 15592v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Efficient LLM serving is often bottlenecked by the need to pad sequences to a fixed maximum length, and this wastes compute and degrades throughput.

arXiv:2608. 12385v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: As large language models serve ever more requests, cumulative inference cost is growing relative to the one-time cost of training.

arXiv:2607. 19358v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in long chain-of-thought reasoning models such as DeepSeek-R1 have led to increasingly longer inference context lengths under the test-time scaling paradigm.
