Researchers have developed a new sparse attention mechanism called Adamas designed to improve the efficiency of long-context inference in large language models. Adamas utilizes the Hadamard transform, bucketing, and 2-bit compression to create compact representations and employs a lightweight estimation method for selecting relevant tokens. Evaluations demonstrate that Adamas can achieve significant speedups in self-attention and end-to-end decoding while maintaining performance comparable to full attention on complex reasoning tasks.
