A Target-Centric Survey of Quantization-Aware Training

The paper presents a target‑centric survey of Quantization‑Aware Training (QAT), a technique that simulates quantization during model training to produce low‑bit models with accuracy comparable to full‑precision ones. It systematically reviews existing QAT methods using a target‑centric taxonomy, highlighting differences in error characteristics, numerical formats, and strategy transferability across targets. The survey also summarizes QAT evaluation paradigms, discusses optimization and deployment challenges, and outlines potential future research directions.

WINDQuant: Weight-Informed Neural Decision-Making for Global Mixed-Precision LLM Quantization

arXiv:2605. 26660v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Quantization is an effective approach to reduce the memory footprint and inference cost of large language models (LLMs), yet maintaining performance in the ultra-low-bit regime remains challenging.
