Zyphra ZYFA: FP8 FlashAttention for AMD MI355X, Up to 1.76x Faster

Zyphra released ZYFA, open-source FP8 and BF16 prefill attention kernels for AMD Instinct MI355X. On real model activations, its FP8 kernels run 1.16-1.76x faster than AMD’s AITER, with 62-78% lower error at head dimension 128. The post Zyphra ZYFA: FP8 FlashAttention for AMD MI355X, Up to 1.76x Faster appeared first on MarkTechPost.

Quantifying Meaning with SCAPE-T: Semantic Complexity from Encoder-Only Transformer Attention

arXiv:2610.33441v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automated semantic complexity estimation remains underexplored in NLP, despite important applications in linguistics and interpretability. This paper defines semantic complexity as the code length required to uniquely specify a text's semantic meaning, and operationalises it via SCAPE-T, an attention-derived metric based on encoder-only transformers. Existing measures either model reader effort (readability, lexical difficulty), which correlates with surface features (word length, syntax), or quantify surface features directly (type-token ratio, word frequency). SCAPE-T targets semantic integration directly by combining three submetrics: (i) inverse-weighted self-focus (token-to-self), (ii) CLS focus (token-to-CLS), and (iii) inter-head redun

Extending the Context Length to 1M Tokens!

API Documentation (Chinese) HuggingFace Demo ModelScope Demo Introduction After the release of Qwen2.5, we heard the community’s demand for processing longer contexts. In recent months, we have made many optimizations for the model capabilities and inference performance of extremely long context. Today, we are proud to introduce the new Qwen2.5-Turbo version, which features: Longer Context Support: We have extended the model’s context length from 128k to 1M, which is approximately 1 million English words or 1.

Qwen1.5-110B: The First 100B+ Model of the Qwen1.5 Series

GITHUB HUGGING FACE MODELSCOPE DEMO DISCORD Introduction Recently we have witnessed a burst of large-scale models with over 100 billion parameters in the opensource community. These models have demonstrated remarkable performance in both benchmark evaluation and chatbot arena. Today, we release the first 100B+ model of the Qwen1.5 series, Qwen1.5-110B, which achieves comparable performance with Meta-Llama3-70B in the base model evaluation, and outstanding performance in the chat evaluation, including MT-Bench and AlpacaEval 2.
