| Challenge: | Prior work typically decomposes inference into prefill and decode stages, with the decode stage dominating total latency. |
| Approach: | They propose an algorithm that detects threshold where information loss exceeds information gain during sparse decoding to reduce token consumption by up to 90% and a marginal accuracy degradation of less than 2%. |
| Outcome: | The proposed algorithm reduces token consumption by 90% with a marginal accuracy degradation of less than 2% across reasoning-intensive benchmarks. |
