Think-at-Hard: Selective Latent Iterations to Improve Reasoning Language Models
Tianyu Fu, Yichen You, Zekai Chen +3
Improving the reasoning abilities of Large Language Models (LLMs), especially under parameter constraints, is crucial for real-world applications. Looped transformers address this…
The Latent Space: Foundation, Evolution, Mechanism, Ability, and Outlook
Xinlei Yu, Zhangquan Chen, Yongbo He +36
Latent space is rapidly emerging as a native substrate for language-based models. While modern systems are still commonly understood through explicit token-level generation, an inc…
Cache-to-Cache: Direct Semantic Communication Between Large Language Models
Tianyu Fu, Zihan Min, Hanling Zhang +4
Multi-LLM systems harness the complementary strengths of diverse Large Language Models, achieving performance and efficiency gains that are not attainable by a single model. In exi…
Reducing Latency of LLM Search Agent via Speculation-based Algorithm-System Co-Design
Zixiao Huang, Wen Zeng, Tianyu Fu +10
LLM-based search agents achieve strong performance but suffer from severe latency, as each step requires serialized LLM reasoning followed by action of tool execution. We revisit t…
Mixture of Attention Spans: Optimizing LLM Inference Efficiency with Heterogeneous Sliding-Window Lengths
Tianyu Fu, Haofeng Huang, Xuefei Ning +10
Sliding-window attention offers a hardware-efficient solution to the memory and throughput challenges of Large Language Models (LLMs) in long-context scenarios. Existing methods ty…
R2R: Efficiently Navigating Divergent Reasoning Paths with Small-Large Model Token Routing
Tianyu Fu, Yi Ge, Yichen You +6
Large Language Models (LLMs) achieve impressive reasoning capabilities at the cost of substantial inference overhead, posing substantial deployment challenges. Although distilled S…
