Faster, More Accurate Speech Recognition with Predictive Decoding
![The proposed self-speculative decoding method enhances speech-aware Large Language Models by enabling efficient inference through iterative refinement, where initial predictions are rapidly generated and subsequently validated and corrected based on acoustic feedback, ultimately accelerating the decoding process without sacrificing accuracy-a technique formalized as [latex]P(x|a) = \in t P(x|z)P(z|a)dz[/latex], where 'x' represents the decoded speech, 'a' the acoustic input, and 'z' a latent representation.](https://arxiv.org/html/2603.11243v1/x1.png)
