Contribution Weights combine attention, value magnitude, and directional alignment to measure token influence more faithfully than attention alone, and show attention sinks actively suppress information via a convex sink-rate to output-norm relationship.

LaProx reformulates KV cache eviction as an output-aware matrix approximation, enabling a unified global token selection strategy that preserves LLM performance at 5% cache size across long-context benchmarks.
Attention sinks emerge in language models from softmax-induced token dependence on attention scores and do not appear when using sigmoid attention without normalization in models up to 1B parameters.
