About

Multi-Head Latent Attention (MLA) is an innovative attention mechanism developed by DeepSeek, designed to significantly reduce the memory footprint of the Key-Value (KV) cache during inference. It achieves this by compressing key and value tensors into a lower-dimensional latent space, which can then be reconstructed when needed. This approach aims to accelerate inference and enable LLMs to handle longer sequences more efficiently.
