MemoSight: Unifying Context Compression and Multi Token Prediction for Reasoning Acceleration

While Chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning enables LLMs to solve challenging reasoning problems, as KV cache grows linearly with the number of generated tokens, CoT reasoning faces scaling issues in terms of speed and memory usage. In this work, we propose MemoSight (Memory-Foresight-based reasoning), a unified framework that integrates both context compression and multi-token prediction to mitigate the efficiency issues while maintaining CoT reasoning performance. Our framework adopts the same minimalist design for both context compression and multi-token prediction via special tokens and their corresponding position layout tailored to each token type. Comprehensive experiments on four reasoning benchmarks demonstrate that MemoSight reduces the KV cache footprint by up to 66% and accelerates inference by 1.56x, while outperforming existing CoT compression methods.
