How Transformers Learn to Plan via Multi-Token Prediction

Researchers demonstrate that multi-token prediction (MTP) outperforms standard next-token prediction (NTP) for training language models on reasoning tasks like planning and pathfinding. Through theoretical analysis of simplified Transformers, they reveal that MTP enables a reverse reasoning process where models first identify end states then reconstruct paths backward, suggesting MTP induces more interpretable and robust reasoning circuits.

Pair-In, Pair-Out: Latent Multi-Token Prediction for Efficient LLMs

Researchers propose PIPO (Pair-In, Pair-Out), a novel technique that combines input compression and multi-token prediction to accelerate large language model inference. The method eliminates expensive verification steps while achieving up to 2.64x speedups in first-token latency and demonstrating significant improvements on reasoning benchmarks.
