Medusa augments LLMs with multiple decoding heads and tree-based attention to predict and verify several tokens in parallel, yielding 2.2-3.6x inference speedup via two fine-tuning regimes.
Performers approximate full-rank softmax attention in Transformers via FAVOR+ random features for linear complexity, with theoretical guarantees of unbiased estimation and competitive results on pixel, text, and protein tasks.
Longformer uses local windowed attention plus task-specific global attention to achieve linear scaling and state-of-the-art results on long-document language modeling, QA, and summarization after pretraining.
PaLM 540B demonstrates continued scaling benefits by setting new few-shot SOTA results on hundreds of benchmarks and outperforming humans on BIG-bench.
Deformable DETR achieves higher accuracy than DETR, especially on small objects, while converging in one-tenth the training epochs by using sparse deformable attention on image features.
