Abstract
This paper quantifies the compression cost of token boundaries and their impact on prediction quality.
Reality Card
Core Claim
The introduction of boundary licences allows for significant token-count reductions while maintaining prediction quality, achieving up to 100% recovery of token-count reduction from removing all cuts in certain scenarios.
Method / Result
Boundaries increase the optimal token count by 28.3–36.8%.
Limitations
The results may vary significantly across different languages and datasets, which could affect generalizability.
