Same Predictions, Different Reasons: The Effect of Quantization on Model Explanations

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

Post-training quantization (PTQ) has become a practical solution for deploying deep learning models on resource-constrained edge devices by compressing high-precision floating-point weights into low-precision representations without requiring retraining. Past research has demonstrated that quantization largely preserves classification accuracy; however, whether it also preserves the model's internal reasoning remains an open question.
