SONIC: Segmented Optimized Nexus for Information Compression in Key-Value Caching

Hong Chen, Xiang Liu, Bo Wang +5

The linear growth of Key-Value (KV) cache remains a bottleneck for multi-turn LLM deployment. Existing KV cache compression methods often fail to account for the structural propert…

Beyond Single Embeddings: Capturing Diverse Targets with Multi-Query Retrieval

Hung-Ting Chen, Xiang Liu, Shauli Ravfogel +1

Most text retrievers generate \emph{one} query vector to retrieve relevant documents. Yet, the conditional distribution of relevant documents for the query may be multimodal, e.g.,…
