- TLDR:Decoder hidden states from different layers of large language models (LLMs) often encode complementary information. However, existing speculative decoding methods typically rely on a small set of target-model layers chosen using fixed, position-based heuristics. Selecting an optimal subset of layers is inherently a combinatorial problem, making exhaustive evaluation infeasible even for moderately deep models. In this work, we present a principled framework for multi-layer hidden-state selection for speculative decoding based on two complementary criteria: informativeness, measured through matr
