Papers with lightweight decision module
Deputy: Accelerating Large Language Model Inference with Dynamic Low-Rank Substitution (2026.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing dynamic schemes such as early-exit and layer-drop reduce FLOPs but break batch processing or introduce KV-cache inconsistency. |
| Approach: | They propose a dynamic low-rank substitution framework that employs a lightweight decision module at each layer to dynamically determine the execution branch for different tokens. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model reduces computation by approximately 40% compared to the original dense model while outperforming existing baseline methods. |
