The Value of Kangaroo: Accelerating Large Language Models
Addressing Inference Speed and Efficiency
The development of natural language processing has been significantly propelled by large language models (LLMs), showcasing remarkable performance in tasks like translation, question answering, and text summarization. However, their slow inference speed hinders real-time applications.
Innovative solutions like Kangaroo introduce efficient speculative decoding approaches, utilizing a fixed shallow LLM sub-network as the draft model and employing an early-exiting mechanism to enhance efficiency further.
Practical Solutions and Results
Kangaroo’s lossless self-speculative decoding framework significantly reduces latency, achieving a speedup ratio of up to 1.7× compared to other methods and using 88.7% fewer additional parameters. It sets a new standard in real-time natural language processing by reducing latency without compromising accuracy.
