Task-agnostic prompt compression leverages the redundancy in natural language to reduce computational overhead and enhance information density within prompts, especially in long-context scenarios. Existing methods predominantly rely on information entropy as the metric to compress lexical units, aim…
As a crucial method in prompt engineering, In-Context Learning (ICL) enhances the generalization and knowledge utilization capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) (Dong et al., 2024). However, the lengthy retrieved contexts and limited token throughput in autoregressive models significantly con
Large language models (LLMs) based on Transformer Decoders have become the preferred choice for conversational generative AI. Despite the overall superiority of the Decoder architecture, the gradually increasing Key-Value (KV) cache during inference has emerged as a primary efficiency bottleneck, bo…
Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved impressive accomplishments in recent years. However, the increasing memory consumption of KV cache has possessed a significant challenge to the inference system. Eviction methods have revealed the inherent redundancy within the KV cache, demonstrating its p…
Large Language Models (LLMs) excel in generation tasks, yet their causal attention mechanisms limit performance in embedding tasks. While bidirectional modeling may enhance embeddings, naively fine-tuning unidirectional models bidirectionally severely degrades generative performance. To investigate…
Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities across diverse natural language processing tasks. However, their extensive memory requirements, particularly due to KV cache growth during long-text understanding and generation, present significant challenges for deployment in r
