Accelerating large language model (LLM) inference for high throughput and low latency is crucial for real-world deployments.
Polar Sparsity is introduced as a new approach to handle sparsity in MLP and Attention layers to optimize inference at scale.
Selective GPU kernels for MLP and Attention computations offer up to 2.2x speedups without compromising accuracy across various batch sizes and sequence lengths.
This advancement showcases the scalability of contextual sparsity for large batch sizes, enabling substantial acceleration in LLM deployment systems.
