The proposed Query-aware Inference for Large Language Models (Q-LLM) aims to improve the ability of LLMs to comprehend and reason over long contexts by focusing on memory data relevant to a given query. This system can accurately capture pertinent information within a fixed window size and provide precise answers to queries, without requiring extra training. Q-LLM has been integrated with LLaMA3 (QuickLLaMA) and demonstrated improved performance on various benchmarks, including a 7.17% increase over the current state-of-the-art on LLaMA3 and a 3.26% improvement on Mistral.

Large Language Models have the ability to understand and reason about long sequences of text. However, they struggle with capturing long-distance dependencies within these sequences. To address this issue, researchers have developed Query-aware Inference for Large Language Models (Q-LLM). This system allows LLMs to focus on specific pieces of information that are relevant to a given query, rather than trying to understand the entire sequence at once. Q-LLM is designed to be easy to use and can be integrated with any existing LLM.
