Speculative decoding has significantly accelerated Large Language Model (LLM) inference by alleviating memory-bound bottlenecks. However, traditional speculative decoding typically relies on auxiliary draft modules, incurring significant training and communication overhead.
arXiv:2606. 03819v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: One-shot block drafters for speculative decoding generate the full draft in a single forward pass, achieving strong throughput by eliminating sequential token generation.
arXiv:2605. 30580v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Speculative decoding is a popular technique for large language model (LLM) inference, enabling faster generation by drafting multiple tokens with a smaller draft model.

Speculative decoding, in which a lightweight draft model first generates a draft sequence that is then verified in parallel by the target model, has become a prevalent paradigm for accelerating large language model inference. Recent work such as DFlash further boosts drafting efficiency by leveraging diffusion drafters, whose parallel denoising mechanism enables draft generation in a single forward pass.
The paper introduces SwitchSD, an adaptive framework that controls speculative decoding by distinguishing genuine copy intent from accidental repetitions using lightweight probes on a model’s internal representations. SwitchSD dynamically switches between neural drafting and context-based copying, achieving up to 15% throughput gains over existing baselines such as EAGLE3. The approach turns copying from a noisy heuristic into a principled, model-aware decoding regime.
