Spec-AUF: Accept-Until-Fail Training under Train-Inference Misalignment for Masked Block Drafters

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

Speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive generation by drafting a block of tokens that the target model verifies left-to-right, committing only the longest accepted prefix. Block (DLM-style) drafters predict the whole block in parallel, which is fast but trained with a full-block cross-entropy that supervises every position against the gold continuation -- even though inference discards every token after the first rejection.
