  1. Break the Sequential Dependency of LLM Inference Using Lookahead Decoding (2024 · 114 citations)
    Generating text with LLMs one token at a time is slow. Each step is limited by memory bandwidth, so most of the GPU's compute sits idle. Speculative decoding helps, but it needs a draft model, which is hard to train and often fails to transfer across base models or datasets. The authors propose Lookahead Decoding…
  2. Deep Think with Confidence (2025 · 61 citations)
    Parallel reasoning with self-consistency (sampling many chains of thought and taking a majority vote) improves LLM accuracy, but it is costly and its gains flatten as more traces are added.
