Fused-Softmax for efficient quantized attention

arXiv cs.AI · Tianxing Wu, Juuso Korhonen, Jesus Carabano Bravo ·

arXiv:2611.09225v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-precision matrix throughput on modern GPUs is growing far faster than vector-arithmetic throughput. Attention therefore cannot realize the available GEMM performance because softmax has become the pipeline bottleneck. We introduce Fused-Softmax Attention, a…
