\texttt{TensorSketch} by~\cite{pham2013fast,kar2012random} provides efficient sketching algorithms for high-dimensional polynomial kernels $\vec{x}^{\otimes p} \in \R^{d^p}$. \cite{kar2012random} uses dense Johnson-Lindenstrauss (JL)-type projections with computational cost $O(pDd)$, where $D$ denotes the sketch dimension, whereas~\cite{pham2013fast} extends the sparse \texttt{CountSketch}~\citep{count_sketch} algorithm, yielding a faster algorithm for high-dimensional sparse inputs with running time $O\big(p(\nnz{\vec{x}} + D \log D)\big)$.

ThinQuant introduces efficient rotation learning for low‑bit weight and activation quantization of large language models by reducing calibration data through a geometric selection of activations and solving a lower‑dimensional optimization problem via an ADMM algorithm. The method achieves comparable or better quantization performance with dramatically fewer calibration points, completing rotation calibration for Llama‑3‑70B in under 12 minutes and for Llama‑3.1‑405B in just over 2 hours on a single GPU. ThinQuant outperforms existing gradient‑free approaches such as DartQuant and gradient‑based SpinQuant in both speed and perplexity metrics on WikiText‑2.
