Long context large language models (LLMs) pose significant challenges for efficient serving due to the large memory footprint and high access overhead of KV cache.Retrieval-based KV cache reduction methods can mitigate these challenges, typically by offloading the complete KV cache to CPU and retrie…
Small language models (SLMs) are gaining attention for their lower computational and memory needs while maintaining strong performance. However, efficiently deploying SLMs on resource-constrained devices remains a significant challenge. Post-training quantization(PTQ) is a widely used compression te
Deploying large language models (LLMs) on edge devices presents significant challenges due to the substantial computational overhead and memory requirements. Activation sparsification can mitigate these resource challenges by reducing the number of activated neurons during inference. Existing method…
