The paper introduces REVA, a method for compressing retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) prompts by aggregating historical query–document–model interactions into reusable evidence views. REVA mines attention traces from the target generator, maps token-level attention to readable words, aggregates importance across repeated document accesses, and produces budget‑specific plain‑text views that maintain document order and the standard RAG interface. Experiments on four benchmarks with modern LLMs show that REVA improves generation quality by 1.0–5.8 points over existing compressors while reducing compression overhead by 5.3 to 15.6 times and adding less than 40 ms of latency.
arXiv:2606. 10716v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pre-trained language models (PLMs) have achieved strong performance in keyphrase extraction (KPE), largely due to their ability to generate rich contextualized representations.
SGD-KV is a head‑aware framework for compressing key‑value caches in large language models. It uses a chunk‑summarization diagnostic task to identify attention heads that specialize in hierarchical information aggregation, allowing the KV cache budget to be allocated based on each head’s summarization score. Experiments on Qwen2.5‑7B‑1M and Qwen3‑32B show state‑of‑the‑art performance on up to 1M‑token contexts while cutting KV cache memory usage by up to 75%.
arXiv:2607. 01237v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reasoning language models often generate long chain-of-thought (CoT), which accumulates a massive KV cache during the decoding phase and incurs high decoding latency and limited throughput.
The paper introduces SCSP, a training‑free framework that improves long‑context embeddings by selectively pooling informative tokens. SCSP partitions documents into sentence‑aware chunks, adds a semantic compression prompt to each chunk, and uses prompt‑isolated attention masks to estimate token importance. The selected tokens’ intermediate‑layer representations are aggregated to form the final embedding, yielding consistent performance gains across zero‑shot and fine‑tuned models on long‑context benchmarks.
arXiv:2606. 24467v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-context large language model (LLM) inference is increasingly constrained by the memory footprint and decoding cost of key-value (KV) caches, limiting sustainable deployment on resource-constrained hardware.
