Evaluating an Inference Acceleration Proposal
A team is trying to accelerate inference for their Transformer-based language model. They are evaluating two approaches:
Approach 1: Modifying the decoding process to keep track of several high-probability next words at each step, rather than just the single most likely word.
Approach 2: Replacing the standard dot-product calculation within the model's attention layers with a faster, mathematically approximate version.
Which statement correctly categorizes these two approaches?
