arXiv:2602. 03120v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Post-Training Quantization (PTQ) is essential for deploying Large Language Models (LLMs) on memory-constrained devices, yet it renders models static and difficult to fine-tune.
arXiv:2606. 09927v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Post-training quantization (PTQ) is one of the most practical ways to reduce the serving cost of Large Language Models (LLMs), but activation quantization remains difficult because outlier-dominated channels lead to large quantization errors.
arXiv:2607. 04302v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present HiFA4, a post-training operator-level design that executes both QK^T and PV in FlashAttention as 4-bit HIF4 Cube GEMMs for LLM inference on Ascend NPUs, while maintaining the online softmax state in FP16.
arXiv:2606. 10531v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quantization-aware training (QAT) is essential for extremely low-bit large language models (LLMs).
arXiv:2607. 10137v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training quantization (PTQ) of large language models degrades sharply below 4-bit precision.
arXiv:2602. 05367v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Efficient deployment of large language models (LLMs) requires extreme quantization, forcing a critical trade-off between low-bit efficiency and performance.
