When Entropy Is Not Enough: Reclaiming Lost Semantics in LLM Output Length Prediction

Read the original on arXiv AI →

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.

Ranking Before Serving: Low-Latency LLM Serving via Pairwise Learning-to-Rank

arXiv:2510. 03243v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Efficient scheduling of large language model (LLM) inference tasks is critical for achieving low latency and high throughput, a challenge that is becoming increasingly acute with the rise of reasoning-capable LLMs whose generation lengths are highly variable.

PARTREP: Learning What to Repeat for Decoder-only LLMs

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. A simple and effective remedy is prompt repetition -- just appending a second copy of prompt before generation can redistribute grounding across positions and improve reasoning performance.

From Rigid to Dynamic: Entropy-Guided Adaptive Inference for Long-Context LLMs

arXiv:2606. 09508v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing sparse attention and KV cache compression methods for long-context LLM inference typically apply fixed sparsity patterns or uniform budgets across all attention heads, overlooking the substantial variation in attention behavior among heads and contexts.
