: Unifying Generation and Self-Verification for Parallel Reasoners
Harman Singh, Xiuyu Li, Kusha Sareen +14
Test-time scaling for complex reasoning tasks shows that leveraging inference-time compute, by methods such as independently sampling and aggregating multiple solutions, results in…
Kitty: Accurate and Efficient 2-bit KV Cache Quantization with Dynamic Channel-wise Precision Boost
Haojun Xia, Xiaoxia Wu, Jisen Li +12
The KV cache is a dominant memory bottleneck for LLM inference. While 4-bit KV quantization preserves accuracy, 2-bit often degrades it, especially on long-context reasoning. We cl…
Beat the long tail: Distribution-Aware Speculative Decoding for RL Training
Zelei Shao, Vikranth Srivatsa, Sanjana Srivastava +12
Reinforcement learning(RL) post-training has become essential for aligning large language models (LLMs), yet its efficiency is increasingly constrained by the rollout phase, where…
Aurora-M: Open Source Continual Pre-training for Multilingual Language and Code
Taishi Nakamura, Mayank Mishra, Simone Tedeschi +42
Pretrained language models are an integral part of AI applications, but their high computational cost for training limits accessibility. Initiatives such as Bloom and StarCoder aim…
