Cross-Family Speculative Prefill: Training-Free Long-Context Compression with Small Draft Models
Shubhangi Upasani, Ravi Shanker Raju, Bo Li +5
Prompt length is a major bottleneck in agentic large language model (LLM) workloads, where repeated inference steps and multi-call loops incur substantial prefill cost. Recent work…
Training Domain Draft Models for Speculative Decoding: Best Practices and Insights
Fenglu Hong, Ravi Raju, Jonathan Lingjie Li +5
Speculative decoding is an effective method for accelerating inference of large language models (LLMs) by employing a small draft model to predict the output of a target model. How…
LLMs Know What to Drop: Self-Attention Guided KV Cache Eviction for Efficient Long-Context Inference
Guangtao Wang, Shubhangi Upasani, Chen Wu +5
Efficient long-context inference is critical as large language models (LLMs) adopt context windows of ranging from 128K to 1M tokens. However, the growing key-value (KV) cache and…
SambaLingo: Teaching Large Language Models New Languages
Zoltan Csaki, Bo Li, Jonathan Li +7
Despite the widespread availability of LLMs, there remains a substantial gap in their capabilities and availability across diverse languages. One approach to address these issues h…
