ECHO: Early-layer Collaborative Hierarchical Orchestration with Bonus Logits in Speculative Decoding
While draft-model-free speculative decoding offers a promising path to efficient LLM inference, it is frequently constrained by stale draft candidates and the high computational cost of the verification. To address these challenges, we propose ECHO, a hierarchical dual-loop framework that exploits the functional asymmetry between LLM layers. Leveraging the high discriminative efficiency of early layers and the authoritative distribution of final layers, ECHO bifurcates inference into a high-frequency inner loop and a low-frequency outer loop. Within the inner loop, early-layer bonus logits dri
SRPO: Self-Reflective Policy Optimization for Long-Horizon Reasoning
Self-reflection is a powerful mechanism for credit assignment in human learning, converting sparse outcome feedback into actionable guidance. However, its potential for post-training Large Language Models (LLMs) remains underexplored. We propose Self-Reflective Policy Optimization (SRPO), a framework that internalizes this capability. SRPO enables LLMs to analyze their own completed trajectories, synthesize errors into concise "reflection patches," and use reflection-conditioned teacher scores on student on-policy rollouts as dense token-level training signals. This process effectively transfo
