arXiv:2608. 11240v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vector quantization is an old problem but has recently become central to AI infrastructure.
arXiv:2606. 00289v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Quantization is a fundamental tool used to compress datasets, neural network weights, and memory usage in a range of computational tasks.
arXiv:2606. 10531v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantization-aware training (QAT) is essential for extremely low-bit large language models (LLMs).
arXiv:2505. 18231v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) inference is typically memory-intensive, especially when processing large batch sizes and long sequences, due to the large size of key-value (KV) cache.
arXiv:2506. 04985v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) require substantial compute, and thus energy, at inference time.
arXiv:2603. 04956v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This paper considers the problem of converting a given dense linear layer to low precision.
arXiv:2608. 07019v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training quantization (PTQ) is widely used to reduce the memory and computational cost of large language models.
arXiv:2606. 07819v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recently, the efficiency of Large Language Models (LLMs) deployment has become a critical concern in practical applications.
arXiv:2602. 08923v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multi-hop all-reduce is the de facto backbone of large model training.
arXiv:2606. 04620v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLMs have become the state-of-the-art algorithms for solving NLP tasks.
arXiv:2606. 07618v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: NVFP4 is a recently introduced hardware-supported FP4 format that improves the fidelity of 4-bit quantization through fine-grained block scales.
arXiv:2601. 21626v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Post Training Quantization (PTQ), a mainstream model compression technique, often leads to the paradoxical 'low error, high loss' phenomenon because it focuses solely on minimizing quantization error.
arXiv:2606. 03458v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Test-time scaling is a powerful approach to obtain better reasoning in large language models, but it becomes memory-bottlenecked during long-horizon decoding, as the KV-cache grows.
