-# Speculative Decoding: Cross-Domain Draft-Verify Dynamics
-
-**Status:** ✅ COMPLETE - Ready for Publication
-**Created:** 2025-11-28
-**Completed:** 2025-11-30
-**Target:** Paper publication (NeurIPS/ICLR Workshop or arXiv)
-**Timeline:** Ahead of schedule (completed 5 days early)
-

-
-## Executive Summary
-
-This experiment investigates draft-verify dynamics in speculative decoding across diverse domains (code, math, translation, data-to-text) and attention mask architectures. We analyze when and why verifier models reject draft tokens, how rejection patterns vary by domain, and which attention mechanisms optimize the draft-verify trade-off.
-
-**Key Finding (Preview):** Draft rejection is highly domain-dependent, with code generation showing 14% rejection (lowest) versus translation at 34.9% (highest), contradicting the intuition that syntax constraints increase rejection. Attention mask choice significantly impacts performance, with no single mask optimal across all domains.
-
-**Contribution:** First systematic cross-domain analysis of speculative decoding rejection patterns with architectural ablations.

-## Research Objectives
-
-### Primary Objectives
-
-1. **Draft Rejection Analysis**
-   - Quantify rejection rates by domain, position, and token frequency
-   - Identify systematic patterns vs. random errors
-   - Correlate rejection with quality metrics
-
-2. **Cross-Domain Evaluation**
-   - Measure performance across 4 diverse domains:
-     - Code generation (HumanEval)
-     - Mathematical reasoning (GSM8K)
-     - Multilingual translation (Flores-200)
-     - Structured data-to-text (WebNLG)
-   - Compare quality, throughput, and acceptance rates
-
-3. **Attention Mask Ablation**
-   - Test 5 attention mask variants:
-     - Original hybrid (bidirectional draft + causal history)
-     - Fully causal (standard autoregressive)
-     - Fully bidirectional (parallel draft)
-     - Windowed (k=32, local attention)
-     - Strided (sparse attention, stride=4)
-   - Identify domain-specific optimal masks
-
-### Secondary Objectives
-
-- Generate architecture recommendations for deployment
-- Create reusable analysis framework
-- Establish baseline for future hybrid architecture comparisons
-

-
-## Methodology
-
-### Architecture: Speculative Decoding
-
-**Draft Model:** Smaller, faster model generates candidate tokens
-**Verifier Model:** Larger, more accurate model validates or rejects drafts
-
-**Models Used:**
-- **Phase 1-2:** Qwen2.5-7B (Verifier) + Qwen2.5-0.5B (Draft)
-- **Phase 3:** DistilGPT-2 (Draft) + GPT-2 (Verify)
-
-**Configuration:**
-- Lookahead: γ=5 tokens
-- Decoding: Greedy (temperature=0) for reproducibility
-- Logging: Every token's draft/verify decision
-
-### Datasets & Metrics
-
-| Domain | Dataset | Metric | Samples |
-|--------|---------|--------|---------|
-| Code | HumanEval | pass@1 | 164 (full) / 50 (ablation) |
-| Math | GSM8K | Exact Match | 500 / 100 |
-| Translation | Flores-200 (En-Fr) | BLEU | 500 / 100 |
-| Data-to-Text | WebNLG | ROUGE-L | 500 / 100 |
-
-**Collected Metrics:**
-- Draft acceptance rate (%)
-- Throughput (tokens/sec)
-- Quality (domain-specific)
-- Rejection by position (early/mid/late)
-- Rejection by token frequency (rare/common)
-

-## Key Results (Preliminary)
+## Overview
 
-### Finding 1: Domain-Dependent Rejection (H1 Falsified)
+This experiment investigates draft-verify dynamics in speculative decoding across diverse domains (code, math, translation, data-to-text) and attention mask architectures.
 
-**Hypothesis:** Code has higher rejection than prose due to syntax constraints
-**Result:** FALSIFIED - Code had LOWEST rejection
+## Key Findings
 
+### Finding 1: Domain-Dependent Rejection
 | Domain | Rejection Rate | Insight |
 |--------|---------------|---------|
 | Code | 14.0% | Syntax aids prediction |
@@ -120,240 +36,40 @@ This experiment investigates draft-verify dynamics in speculative decoding acros
 | Math | 26.1% | Logic steps diverge |
 | Translation | 34.9% | High semantic entropy |
 
-**Implication:** Structural constraints help drafting, not hurt it.
-
-### Finding 2: Position Effect (H2 Supported)
-
-**Hypothesis:** Early tokens rejected more than late tokens
-**Result:** SUPPORTED
-
-- Early tokens (<20): 27.4% rejection
-- Late tokens (>100): 22.3% rejection
-- Gap: 5.1 percentage points (statistically significant)
-
-**Implication:** Context establishment is the bottleneck.
-
-### Finding 3: Frequency Effect (H3 Weak Support)
-
-**Hypothesis:** Rare tokens rejected more than common
-**Result:** WEAK SUPPORT
-
-- Rare tokens (<0.01% frequency): 24.6% rejection
-- Common tokens: 23.1% rejection
-- Gap: 1.5 percentage points (statistically significant but small)
-
-**Implication:** Frequency matters less than domain.
-
-### Finding 4: Attention Mask Sensitivity (New Contribution)
-
-**Hypothesis:** Original hybrid mask is optimal
-**Result:** FALSIFIED - Domain-specific masks outperform
-
-| Domain | Best Mask | Acceptance Rate | Worst Mask | Rate |
-|--------|-----------|----------------|------------|------|
-| Code | Windowed (k=32) | 20.0% | Hybrid | 9.6% |
-| Math | Fully Causal | 31.2% | Windowed | 9.2% |
-| Translation | Fully Causal | 31.8% | Strided | 9.0% |
-
-**Throughput Winner:** Bidirectional (1.5x-2.5x faster across all domains)
-
-**Implication:** One-size-fits-all attention masks are suboptimal. Need domain-adaptive masking.
-
----
-
-## Architecture Recommendations
-
-Based on our findings:
-
-1. **Code Generation:** Use Windowed attention (k=32)
-   - Leverages local syntactic cues
-   - 2x better acceptance than standard masks
-
-2. **Reasoning/Translation:** Use Fully Causal attention
-   - Requires global context for correctness
-   - 3x better acceptance than windowed
-
-3. **High-Throughput Scenarios:** Use Bidirectional attention
-   - Accept lower accuracy for speed
-   - 1.5x-2.5x throughput gain
-
-4. **Adaptive Systems:** Dynamically switch masks based on detected domain
-   - Code detector → Windowed
-   - Reasoning detector → Causal
-   - General text → Hybrid

-## Relation to TiDAR (Future Work)
-
-**Original Motivation:** Extend TiDAR paper (arXiv:2511.08923)
-
-**Status:** TiDAR code not yet released (SGLang inference "coming soon")
-
-**Decision:** Pivot to speculative decoding (closely related architecture)
-
-**Future Experiment:** When TiDAR releases:
-- Reproduce our analysis with TiDAR's diffusion-based drafting
-- Compare diffusion vs. small-model drafting
-- Test if our findings generalize to hybrid diffusion-AR
