DSpark: Confidence-Scheduled Speculative Decoding with Semi-Autoregressive Generation
Speculative decoding accelerates Large Language Model (LLM) inference by decoupling draft generation from target verification. While recent parallel drafters efficiently propose long token sequences in a single forward pass, they suffer from rapid acceptance decay due to a lack of inter-token dependencies. Furthermore, indiscriminately verifying these extended blocks wastes critical batch capacity on tokens with high rejection risks, severely degrading throughput in high-concurrency serving systems. We introduce DSpark, a speculative decoding framework that unifies high-throughput parallel gen
