BF1: A Causal Dyadic Sparse-Attention Retrofit for Efficient Long-Context Transformers
arXiv:2608.20427v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Dense causal attention remains expensive at long context even when implemented with highly optimized exact kernels. We study BF1, a deterministic block-aligned dyadic sparse-attention route that combines a small exact local neighborhood, a global first block, and logarithmically spaced historical blocks. The route is related to prior log-sparse and dilated attention patterns; our contribution is a correctness-gated pretrained-model retrofit, a matc
