Sentence-Level KV Caching

Sentence-Level KV Caching

Boosting LLM Efficiency Through Semantic-Aware Memory Management

SentenceKV introduces a novel approach that reduces memory usage and improves inference speed by organizing key-value caches at the sentence level rather than token level.

  • Achieves up to 1.7x speedup over traditional caching methods
  • Reduces memory consumption while maintaining model quality
  • Leverages sentence-level semantic patterns to intelligently cache information
  • Compatible with existing KV caching optimization techniques

This innovation addresses critical engineering challenges for deploying LLMs with long contexts, making large language models more practical and cost-effective for real-world applications.
