arXiv:2607. 07665v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Classifier-free guidance (CFG) is the standard way to strengthen class-conditioning in diffusion and flow-matching samplers, yet at large guidance it oversaturates and destabilizes, symptoms practitioners suppress with more steps or limited-interval schedules.

arXiv:2606. 04115v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantizing large language models (LLMs) to low-precision floating-point representations is central to efficient deployment, yet applying a single bit-width uniformly across all layers is sub-optimal in terms of both performance and accuracy.

Classifier-free guidance (CFG) is the standard way to strengthen class-conditioning in diffusion and flow-matching samplers, yet at large guidance it oversaturates and destabilizes, symptoms practitioners suppress with more steps or limited-interval schedules. We analyze CFG through an asymptotic-preserving, numerical-analysis lens.
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:2607. 23047v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixed-precision quantization improves the accuracy of post-training quantization by allocating higher bitwidths to sensitive layers, but existing methods solve the allocation for a single fixed memory budget.

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:2505. 22988v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The goal of quantization is to produce a compressed model whose output distribution is as close to the original model's as possible.

arXiv:2605. 17160v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Model quantization is widely used to reduce memory, latency, and deployment cost, and is typically judged by whether predictive accuracy is preserved.
