Dropping the Anchor: Statistical Context Summarization for Distributed Systems via Pulsar Attention
Aryan Sood, Shantanu Acharya, Gaurav Kumar Nayak
Inference with large language models (LLMs) on long sequences is computationally expensive due to the quadratic complexity of self-attention. Distributed blockwise methods such as…
