  1. LongSpec: Long-Context Lossless Speculative Decoding with Efficient Drafting and Verification (2026 · 5 citations)
    Speculative decoding (SD) speeds up LLM inference without changing outputs. However, leading SD drafters such as EAGLE are trained on short sequences (about 2k–4k tokens) and break down when contexts get very long. The authors identify three causes:
  2. Merlin's Whisper: Enabling Efficient Reasoning in Large Language Models via Black-box Persuasive Prompting (2026)
    Large reasoning models often produce very long reasoning traces, even for easy questions. This "overthinking" raises latency and memory costs. Earlier fixes either retrain the model, which is costly, or add simple instructions like "be concise", which tend to hurt accuracy or barely shorten outputs. The authors treat…
