arXiv:2606. 04050v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing quantization methods are fundamentally limited by rigid, integer-based bit-widths (e.
arXiv:2608. 15602v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While binary quantization theoretically promises extreme compression and acceleration for Large Language Models (LLMs), existing research often overlooks the necessity of specialized hardware kernels, thus failing to unleash the full acceleration potential due to persistent reliance on expensive floating-point arithmetic or runtime dequantization overheads.
arXiv:2606. 00079v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) large language models reduce per-token computation through sparse expert activation, but their deployment remains memory-intensive because all expert weights must be kept resident in memory.
arXiv:2606. 15652v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: 4-bit quantization significantly reduces the memory footprint and accelerates the inference of large language models (LLMs).
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:2602. 01027v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Mixed-precision quantization is a promising approach for compressing large language models under tight memory budgets.
