CoSA: Accelerating Long-Context Inference via Proxy-Kernel Co-Designed Sparse Attention
Yufei Xue, Lin Niu, Hong Liu +6
CoSA introduces a training-free, two-stage sparse attention method that jointly designs a proxy and kernel to efficiently handle very long contexts, achieving faster inference with…
RRAttention: Dynamic Block Sparse Attention via Per-Head Round-Robin Shifts for Long-Context Inference
Siran Liu, Guoxia Wang, Sa Wang +7
The quadratic complexity of attention mechanisms poses a critical bottleneck for large language models processing long contexts. While dynamic sparse attention methods offer input-…
A Unified Sparse Attention via Multi-Granularity Compression
Siran Liu, Zane Cao, Yongchao He
Efficient long-context understanding and reasoning are increasingly vital for large language model (LLM) applications such as multi-turn dialogue and program analysis. However, the…
HeteroSpec: Leveraging Contextual Heterogeneity for Efficient Speculative Decoding
Siran Liu, Yang Ye, Qianchao Zhu +2
Autoregressive decoding inherently limits the inference throughput of Large Language Model (LLM) due to its sequential dependency. Speculative decoding mitigates this by verifying…
SampleAttention: Near-Lossless Acceleration of Long Context LLM Inference with Adaptive Structured Sparse Attention
Qianchao Zhu, Jiangfei Duan, Chang Chen +6
Large language models (LLMs) now support extremely long context windows, but the quadratic complexity of vanilla attention results in significantly long Time-to-First-Token (TTFT)…
