31
+ # dspark-mlx
32
+
33
+ Target-agnostic MLX implementation of DeepSeek **DSpark** self-speculative decoding.
34
+
35
+ DSpark drafts a block of tokens from a small EAGLE-style draft model (projected target
36
+ hidden states + a low-rank Markov logit bias + a per-token confidence head), which the
37
+ host base model then verifies **losslessly**. This package owns the DSpark draft stack and
38
+ the verify/accept policy; the base model is supplied by the host through a small adapter
39
+ (`dspark_mlx/adapter.py`). The emitted stream is identical to greedy decoding from the base
40
+ model alone.
41
+
42
+ ## Install
43
+
44
+ ```bash
45
+ pip install dspark-mlx # Qwen3 (mlx-lm) and Gemma (mlx-vlm) both supported out of the box
46
+ ```
47
+
48
+ ```bash
49
+ dspark generate --model qwen3-4b "Explain speculative decoding." --quant-draft 8 --no-think
50
+ dspark bench --model qwen3-4b --quant-draft 8 --no-think
51
+ dspark eval --model qwen3-4b --dataset gsm8k --n 20
52
+ ```
53
+
54
+ The package itself is tiny; `dspark` downloads the DSpark draft + the deployed **instruct** base
55
+ on first use (some bases — e.g. `google/gemma-4-12b-it` — are gated and large, ~24 GB).
56
+
57
+ ## Architectures
58
+
59
+ One DSpark recipe, three base-model backbones — selected by `model_type` via the registry
60
+ (`dspark_mlx/registry.py`), mirroring `dflash-mlx`'s `TARGET_BACKENDS`:
61
+
62
+ | Backbone | Checkpoint | Draft layer body |
63
+ |---|---|---|
64
+ | `deepseek_v4` | `DeepSeek-V4-Flash-DSpark` (bundled fp8/fp4, `mtp.*`) | MLA + hash-MoE + Hyper-Connections + windowed sparse attn |
65
+ | `qwen3` | `dspark_qwen3_{4b,8b,14b}_block7` (standalone bf16, `layers.*`) | Qwen3 GQA + QK-norm + SwiGLU |
66
+ | `gemma4` | `dspark_gemma4_12b_block7` (standalone bf16, `layers.*`) | Gemma4 GQA (K=V) + sandwich norms + GeGLU + partial RoPE + softcap |
67
+
68
+ Add an architecture: implement a `DraftArch` (build + key_map) in `dspark_mlx/arch/<name>.py`
69
+ and append it to `ARCH_REGISTRY` — `generate`/`verify`/`adapter` are unchanged.
70
+
71
+ ```python
72
+ from dspark_mlx import resolve_arch, load_drafter, generate
73
+
74
+ arch = resolve_arch(config) # by config["model_type"]
75
+ drafter = arch.build(config, max_seq_len=...)
76
+ load_drafter(drafter, weights, key_map=arch.key_map)
77
+ for event in generate(adapter, drafter, prompt_tokens, max_new_tokens):
78
+ ...
79
+ ```
80
+
81
+ ## Benchmarks
82
+
83
+ Lossless speedup on Apple Silicon (eager loop, greedy) and average **accepted length**
84
+ (τ = tokens per verify step) vs the DSpark paper — the hardware-independent metric the paper
85
+ reports. Both backbones land in the paper's acceptance band. Full methodology, all precisions,
86
+ and findings in **[BENCHMARK.md](https://github.com/popfido/dspark-mlx/blob/main/BENCHMARK.md)**.
87
+
88
+ | model | accepted length (GSM8K) | acceptance rate | speedup |
89
+ |---|---|---|---|
90
+ | Qwen3-4B (bf16) | 3.86 / 6.27† | 41% / 75%† | 1.17× |
91
+ | Qwen3-14B (bf16) | 3.79 / 6.29† | 40% / 76%† | **1.98×**† |
92
+ | Gemma4-12B-it (bf16) | **5.84** | **69%** | **2.06×** |
93
+
94
+ †thinking off (`--no-think`). Two knobs: **acceptance length** is set by the draft + task
95
+ (≈ size-independent — 4B ≈ 14B), while **speedup** is set by how expensive the base is (a
96
+ costlier base amortizes the draft better, so Qwen3-4B 1.17× → 14B 1.98× → Gemma-12B 2.06×).
97
+ **Quantize the draft** (`--quant-draft 8`, acceptance-lossless, ½ the draft size) for a free
98
+ ~10–20% on top of any base — Qwen3-4B bf16 1.26× → **1.67×**, 8-bit base 1.34× → **1.62×**,
99
+ Qwen3-14B 2.07× → **2.36×** (see BENCHMARK.md for the base×draft-precision table). The draft must
100
+ target the deployed **instruct** model (the pretrained Gemma base gives ~3× lower acceptance);
101
+ Qwen3's `<think>` traces roughly halve acceptance vs `--no-think`.
102
+
103
+ Based on `deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Flash-DSpark` and the DeepSpec codebase (`dspark/*`).
104
+ Repo structure mirrors `dflash-mlx`.
105
+
106
+ Status: the full draft→verify→accept pipeline is verified against the reference for all
107
+ three backbones (parity on tiny weights; lossless end-to-end against toy bases; real Qwen3
108
+ / Gemma4 checkpoints load and run). See the test suite.

+ dspark generate --model qwen3-4b "Explain speculative decoding." --quant-draft 8 --no-think
20
+ dspark bench --model qwen3-4b --quant-draft 8 --no-think
21
+ dspark eval --model qwen3-4b --dataset gsm8k --n 20
22
+ ```
23
+
24
+ The package itself is tiny; `dspark` downloads the DSpark draft + the deployed **instruct** base
25
+ on first use (some bases — e.g. `google/gemma-4-12b-it` — are gated and large, ~24 GB).
26
+
27
+ ## Architectures
28
+
29
+ One DSpark recipe, three base-model backbones — selected by `model_type` via the registry
30
+ (`dspark_mlx/registry.py`), mirroring `dflash-mlx`'s `TARGET_BACKENDS`:
31
+
32
+ | Backbone | Checkpoint | Draft layer body |
33
+ |---|---|---|
34
+ | `deepseek_v4` | `DeepSeek-V4-Flash-DSpark` (bundled fp8/fp4, `mtp.*`) | MLA + hash-MoE + Hyper-Connections + windowed sparse attn |
35
+ | `qwen3` | `dspark_qwen3_{4b,8b,14b}_block7` (standalone bf16, `layers.*`) | Qwen3 GQA + QK-norm + SwiGLU |
36
+ | `gemma4` | `dspark_gemma4_12b_block7` (standalone bf16, `layers.*`) | Gemma4 GQA (K=V) + sandwich norms + GeGLU + partial RoPE + softcap |
37
+
38
+ Add an architecture: implement a `DraftArch` (build + key_map) in `dspark_mlx/arch/<name>.py`
39
+ and append it to `ARCH_REGISTRY` — `generate`/`verify`/`adapter` are unchanged.
40
+
41
+ ```python
42
+ from dspark_mlx import resolve_arch, load_drafter, generate
43
+
44
+ arch = resolve_arch(config) # by config["model_type"]
45
+ drafter = arch.build(config, max_seq_len=...)
46
+ load_drafter(drafter, weights, key_map=arch.key_map)
47
+ for event in generate(adapter, drafter, prompt_tokens, max_new_tokens):
48
+ ...
49
+ ```
50
+
51
+ ## Benchmarks
52
+
53
+ Lossless speedup on Apple Silicon (eager loop, greedy) and average **accepted length**
54
+ (τ = tokens per verify step) vs the DSpark paper — the hardware-independent metric the paper
55
+ reports. Both backbones land in the paper's acceptance band. Full methodology, all precisions,
56
+ and findings in **[BENCHMARK.md](https://github.com/popfido/dspark-mlx/blob/main/BENCHMARK.md)**.
57
+
58
+ | model | accepted length (GSM8K) | acceptance rate | speedup |
59
+ |---|---|---|---|
60
+ | Qwen3-4B (bf16) | 3.86 / 6.27† | 41% / 75%† | 1.17× |
61
+ | Qwen3-14B (bf16) | 3.79 / 6.29† | 40% / 76%† | **1.98×**† |
62
+ | Gemma4-12B-it (bf16) | **5.84** | **69%** | **2.06×** |
63
+
64
+ †thinking off (`--no-think`). Two knobs: **acceptance length** is set by the draft + task
65
+ (≈ size-independent — 4B ≈ 14B), while **speedup** is set by how expensive the base is (a
66
+ costlier base amortizes the draft better, so Qwen3-4B 1.17× → 14B 1.98× → Gemma-12B 2.06×).
67
+ **Quantize the draft** (`--quant-draft 8`, acceptance-lossless, ½ the draft size) for a free
68
+ ~10–20% on top of any base — Qwen3-4B bf16 1.26× → **1.67×**, 8-bit base 1.34× → **1.62×**,
69
+ Qwen3-14B 2.07× → **2.36×** (see BENCHMARK.md for the base×draft-precision table). The draft must
70
+ target the deployed **instruct** model (the pretrained Gemma base gives ~3× lower acceptance);
71
+ Qwen3's `<think>` traces roughly halve acceptance vs `--no-think`.
72
+
73
+ Based on `deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Flash-DSpark` and the DeepSpec codebase (`dspark/*`).
74
+ Repo structure mirrors `dflash-mlx`.
75
+
76
+ Status: the full draft→verify→accept pipeline is verified against the reference for all
77
+ three backbones (parity on tiny weights; lossless end-to-end against toy bases; real Qwen3
78
+ / Gemma4 checkpoints load and run). See the test suite.

5
+ """The seam between dspark-mlx (drafter + verify/accept loop) and a host base model.
6
+
7
+ dspark-mlx is target-agnostic: it owns the DSpark draft stack and the lossless
8
+ accept policy, but never the base model. The host (e.g. omlx over its
9
+ ``patches/deepseek_v4`` model) implements :class:`BaseModelAdapter` so the drafter
10
+ can (a) read the ``main_hidden`` it conditions on, (b) get the base distribution for
11
+ each candidate token during verify, and (c) snapshot/roll back base KV when a block is
12
+ only partially accepted.
13
+
14
+ Logit conventions (one decode cycle):
15
+ - ``prefill`` / ``decode_step`` return ``StepOut.logits`` = ``p_1``, the base
16
+ distribution for the *first* drafted token. It is free — already computed by the
17
+ step that produced the anchor — so the verify forward never recomputes it.
18
+ - ``verify_forward`` runs ONE base forward over the K drafted tokens and returns the
19
+ K base distributions ``p_2 .. p_{K+1}`` (``p_{K+1}`` is the bonus position).
20
+ - The generate loop concatenates ``[p_1] + [p_2..p_{K+1}]`` into the ``[K+1, V]`` block
21
+ the accept policy consumes (see :mod:`dspark_mlx.verify`).
