Title: Component-Aware Self-Speculative Decoding in Hybrid Language Models

Abstract:
arXiv:2605.01106v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive inference by drafting candidate tokens with a fast model and verifying them in parallel with the target. Self-speculative methods avoid the need for an external drafter but have been studied exclusively in homogeneous Transformer architectures. We introduce component-aware self-speculative decoding, the first method to exploit the internal architectural heterogeneity of hybrid language models, isola
