Mirror Speculative Decoding: Breaking the Serial Barrier in LLM Inference

Nikhil Bhendawade, Kumari Nishu, Arnav Kundu +3

Speculative decoding accelerates LLM inference by using a draft model to look ahead, but gains are capped by the cost of autoregressive draft generation: increasing draft size elev…

FS-DFM: Fast and Accurate Long Text Generation with Few-Step Diffusion Language Models

Amin Karimi Monsefi, Nikhil Bhendawade, Manuel Rafael Ciosici +3

Autoregressive language models (ARMs) deliver strong likelihoods, but are inherently serial: they generate one token per forward pass, which limits throughput and inflates latency…

M2R2: Mixture of Multi-Rate Residuals for Efficient Transformer Inference

Nikhil Bhendawade, Mahyar Najibi, Devang Naik +1

Residual transformations enhance the representational depth and expressive power of large language models (LLMs). However, applying static residual transformations across all token…

Speculative Streaming: Fast LLM Inference without Auxiliary Models

Nikhil Bhendawade, Irina Belousova, Qichen Fu +3

Speculative decoding is a prominent technique to speed up the inference of a large target language model based on predictions of an auxiliary draft model. While effective, in appli…
