arXiv:2608. 14149v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent training-free post-training quantization methods restore model accuracy through closed-form residual compensation.
arXiv:2606. 04238v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Aggressive weight quantization to 2-bit precision offers substantial throughput and memory gains for large language model (LLM) inference, but typically incurs severe accuracy degradation.
arXiv:2608. 13966v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As large language model inference shifts toward lower precision, post-training quantization (PTQ) becomes increasingly brittle, making quantization-aware training (QAT) essential for preserving model quality.
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. 07819v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recently, the efficiency of Large Language Models (LLMs) deployment has become a critical concern in practical applications.
arXiv:2608. 11045v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: ReRound (Reconstructive Rounding) is a post-training quantization method that addresses the midpoint ambiguity inherent in standard round-to-nearest (RTN) schemes when quantizing weights near the centers of quantization intervals.
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. 04620v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLMs have become the state-of-the-art algorithms for solving NLP tasks.
arXiv:2606. 15682v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) achieve strong problem-solving through long chain-of-thought, but their deployment is constrained by the high cost of full-precision inference and growing KV cache footprints.
arXiv:2607. 08241v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying classifier-free guidance (CFG) diffusion models under real-world compute budgets requires quantization, yet existing post-training quantization (PTQ) methods treat CFG models as single-branch networks, ignoring the paired conditional/unconditional structure that CFG inference fundamentally relies on.
arXiv:2608. 15567v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Weight-only post-training quantization (PTQ) enables the deployment of large language models under tight memory budgets, but accuracy often collapses at 2-3 bits.
arXiv:2605. 08692v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Post-training weight-only quantization to 4 bits is widely used to reduce the memory and compute costs of large language model inference.
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.
