Summary
- What is new: Introduces InfLLM, a training-free method that allows large language models to process streaming long sequences without losing the ability to understand long-distance dependencies.
- Why this is important: Existing large language models struggle with processing long sequences due to limitations on their training on shorter sequences, leading to issues with out-of-domain data and distractions.
- What the research proposes: The proposed InfLLM method utilizes additional memory units to store distant contexts and employs an efficient mechanism for attention computation, enabling better processing of long sequences.
- Results: InfLLM enables pre-trained large language models to perform better on long sequences without additional training, maintaining superior performance even at sequence lengths of up to 1,024K tokens.
