Entropy-Guided KV Caching for Efficient LLM Inference by Heekyum Kim, Yuchul Jung

“…Higher-entropy layers—those exhibiting broader attention dispersion—are allocated larger KV cache budgets, while lower-entropy (sink-like) layers are assigned smaller budgets. Instead of selecting different key–value tokens per head, our method selects a common set of important tokens per layer, based on aggregated attention scores, and caches them uniformly across all heads within the same layer. …”
