It is a common way to get models small enough for phones and embedded hardware. 2. **[LLM in a flash: Efficient Large Language Model Inference with Limited Memory](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/alizadeh-2024-llm-flash-efficient-large-language/)** *(2024 · 192 citations)* The paper addresses running LLMs whose weights do not fit into a device's DRAM, as on phones and laptops. The authors keep the full model in flash storage and fetch only the parameters needed for each generated token. They build an inference cost model that splits latency into flash I/O, memory management overhead… ## Co-authors here 3 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Mehrdad Farajtabar](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mehrdad-farajtabar/) ×2 - [Ang Li](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ang-li/) - [Keivan Alizadeh](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/keivan-alizadeh/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 224 times (of the 140 884 papers whose bibliographies we read); [6 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/seyed-iman-mirzadeh/cited-by/).
