Beyond the Target: From Imitation to Collaboration in Speculative Decoding
Jinze Li, Yixing Xu, Guanchen Li +7
Speculative decoding (SPD) accelerates large language model (LLM) inference by letting a smaller draft model propose multiple future tokens that are verified in parallel by a large…
Training-Free Loosely Speculative Decoding: Accepting Semantically Correct Drafts Beyond Exact Match
Jinze Li, Yixing Xu, Guanchen Li +6
Large language models (LLMs) achieve strong performance across diverse tasks but suffer from high inference latency due to their autoregressive generation. Speculative Decoding (SP…
Dual LoRA: Enhancing LoRA with Magnitude and Direction Updates
Yixing Xu, Chao Li, Xuanwu Yin +4
Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) is one of the most popular methods among parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) methods to adapt pre-trained large language models (LLMs) to specific dow…
SparK: Query-Aware Unstructured Sparsity with Recoverable KV Cache Channel Pruning
Huanxuan Liao, Yixing Xu, Shizhu He +6
Long-context inference in large language models (LLMs) is increasingly constrained by the KV cache bottleneck: memory usage grows linearly with sequence length, while attention com…
Gumiho: A Hybrid Architecture to Prioritize Early Tokens in Speculative Decoding
Jinze Li, Yixing Xu, Haiduo Huang +4
Speculative decoding (SPD) aims to accelerate the auto-regressive token generation process of a target Large Language Model (LLM). Some approaches employ a draft model with multipl…
Jakiro: Boosting Speculative Decoding with Decoupled Multi-Head via MoE
Haiduo Huang, Fuwei Yang, Zhenhua Liu +7
Speculative decoding (SD) accelerates large language model inference by using a smaller draft model to predict multiple tokens, which are then verified in parallel by the larger ta…
