Abstract

Elastic Threshold Attention (ETA) introduces a trainable architecture that enhances long-context decoding efficiency without sacrificing model quality.

Reality Card

Core Claim

ETA achieves hardware-accelerated decoding speed with 85% training sparsity and 38% active decode density, rivaling dense attention methods.

Method / Result

Delivers up to 2.5x wall-clock decode speedups over FlashAttention-2 on sequences up to 512K tokens.

Limitations

The offline calibration algorithm may introduce overhead in domain-specific deployments.
