WhiFlash: Accelerating Speculative Decoding with Token-Level Cross-Paradigm Routing
Young D. Kwon, Miles Williams, Rui Li +2
The autoregressive nature of large language models (LLMs) remains a significant bottleneck for inference, particularly in complex agentic workloads. While speculative decoding (SD)…
Speculative Decoding with a Speculative Vocabulary
Miles Williams, Young D. Kwon, Rui Li +2
Speculative decoding has rapidly emerged as a leading approach for accelerating language model (LM) inference, as it offers substantial speedups while yielding identical outputs. T…
Compressing Language Models for Specialized Domains
Miles Williams, George Chrysostomou, Vitor Jeronymo +1
Language models (LMs) excel at tasks across diverse domains, yet require substantial computational resources during inference. Compression techniques such as pruning and quantizati…
Self-calibration for Language Model Quantization and Pruning
Miles Williams, George Chrysostomou, Nikolaos Aletras
Quantization and pruning are fundamental approaches for model compression, enabling efficient inference for language models. In a post-training setting, state-of-the-art quantizati…
