MVR-cache: Optimizing Semantic Caching via Multi-Vector Retrieval and Learned Prompt Segmentation

To reduce LLM costs and latency, semantic caching systems must accurately identify when a new prompt matches a cached one. Current methods often rely on simplistic similarity measures, which limit their effectiveness. We introduce MVR-cache, a novel semantic caching approach that significantly improves retrieval accuracy by integrating Multi-Vector Retrieval (MVR). MVR-cache is built upon a learnable segmentation model that intelligently splits prompts, enabling fine-grained similarity comparisons via MaxSim. We derive the model's training objective from a rigorous theoretical analysis. This can ensure that optimizing this objective directly maximizes cache hits under strict correctness constraints. To solve the resulting non-differentiable combinatorial optimization problem, we leverage a reinforcement learning-based training strategy with the theoretically grounded objectives as the reward. Experimental results on established benchmarks across diverse tasks confirm that in comparison to the state-of-the-art, MVR-cache consistently increases the cache hit rates by up to 37% while maintaining the same correctness guarantees.
