PIS: Linking Importance Sampling and Attention Mechanisms for Efficient Prompt Compression

  • 基于隐藏层注意力分数动态筛选关键词
  • 在多个数据集上压缩率超当前方法,推理速度提升30%
  • 适合需要高效部署大模型的开发者和研究者

大语言模型虽性能卓越,但高昂的计算成本限制其广泛应用,亟需提示词压缩。现有方法多依赖启发式截断或摘要,忽视模型内在机制与令牌重要性评估。本文提出提示词重要性采样(PIS)框架,通过分析隐藏状态的注意力分数,动态压缩提示词。PIS采用双层级机制:1)词级别,利用模型原生注意力分数量化显著性,通过轻量9层强化学习网络实现自适应压缩;2)语义级别,提出俄罗斯轮盘采样策略进行句级重要性采样。在多个领域基准上的全面评估表明,该方法达到业界最优压缩性能。值得注意的是,其优化上下文结构意外提升了推理效率。本工作为提示工程提供了理论支撑与实际效率,推动了大模型上下文管理的发展。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable progress, demonstrating unprecedented capabilities across various natural language processing tasks. However, the high costs associated with such exceptional performance limit the widespread adoption of LLMs, highlighting the need for prompt compression. Existing prompt compression methods primarily rely on heuristic truncation or abstractive summarization techniques, which fundamentally overlook the intrinsic mechanisms of LLMs and lack a systematic evaluation of token importance for generation. In this work, we introduce Prompt Importance Sampling (PIS), a novel compression framework that dynamically compresses prompts by sampling important tokens based on the analysis of attention scores of hidden states. PIS employs a dual-level compression mechanism: 1) at the token level, we quantify saliency using LLM-native attention scores and implement adaptive compression through a lightweight 9-layer reinforcement learning (RL) network; 2) at the semantic level, we propose a Russian roulette sampling strategy for sentence-level importance sampling. Comprehensive evaluations across multiple domain benchmarks demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art compression performance. Notably, our framework serendipitously enhances reasoning efficiency through optimized context structuring. This work advances prompt engineering by offering both theoretical grounding and practical efficiency in context management for LLMs.
