On Training in Imagination

Nadav Timor, Ravid Shwartz-Ziv, Micah Goldblum +2

State-of-the-art model-based reinforcement learning methods train policies on imagined rollouts. These rollouts are trajectories generated by a learned dynamics model and are score…

Out-of-Vocabulary Sampling Boosts Speculative Decoding

Nadav Timor, Jonathan Mamou, Oren Pereg +2

Speculative decoding relies on fast and accurate drafters. Recent state-of-the-art language models employ larger and larger vocabularies, which significantly slows down drafters. O…

NdLinear: Preserving Multi-Dimensional Structure for Parameter-Efficient Neural Networks

Alex Reneau, Jerry Yao-Chieh Hu, Zhongfang Zhuang +6

In deep learning, processing multidimensional inputs (e.g., images, medical scans, and time series) is an important task that often requires flattening the inputs. We introduce $\m…

Accelerating LLM Inference with Lossless Speculative Decoding Algorithms for Heterogeneous Vocabularies

Nadav Timor, Jonathan Mamou, Daniel Korat +5

Accelerating the inference of large language models (LLMs) is a critical challenge in generative AI. Speculative decoding (SD) methods offer substantial efficiency gains by generat…

Distributed Speculative Inference (DSI): Speculation Parallelism for Provably Faster Lossless Language Model Inference

Nadav Timor, Jonathan Mamou, Daniel Korat +6

This paper introduces distributed speculative inference (DSI), a novel inference algorithm that is provably faster than speculative inference (SI) [leviathan2023, chen2023, miao202…

Dynamic Speculation Lookahead Accelerates Speculative Decoding of Large Language Models

Jonathan Mamou, Oren Pereg, Daniel Korat +4

Speculative decoding is commonly used for reducing the inference latency of large language models. Its effectiveness depends highly on the speculation lookahead (SL)-the number of…

Implicit Regularization Towards Rank Minimization in ReLU Networks

Nadav Timor, Gal Vardi, Ohad Shamir

We study the conjectured relationship between the implicit regularization in neural networks, trained with gradient-based methods, and rank minimization of their weight matrices. P…
