1. **[HAT: Hardware-Aware Transformers for Efficient Natural Language Processing](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2020-hat-hardware-aware-transformers-efficient/)** *(2020 · 290 citations)* Transformer models for machine translation are too slow on constrained devices. For example, Transformer-Big needs about 13G FLOPs and roughly 20 seconds on a Raspberry Pi to translate a 30-word sentence. The authors make two observations: FLOPs poorly predict real latency, and the architecture that runs fastest…
2. **[LongLoRA: Efficient Fine-tuning of Long-Context Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/chen-2023-longlora-efficient-fine-tuning-long/)** *(2023 · 265 citations)* Extending the context window of a pre-trained LLM is usually very costly, because self-attention cost grows quadratically with sequence length.
