arXiv:2607. 02893v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-bit quantization shrinks language models but treats precision as a single global hyper-parameter: every weight uses the same bit-width.
By Hamish Ogilvy
arXiv:2608. 06564v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Quantization is how large language models are actually deployed, and below four bits it is known to hurt.

arXiv:2608. 12026v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training quantization pipelines routinely leave the softmax output layer in high precision.

arXiv:2607. 23047v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixed-precision quantization improves the accuracy of post-training quantization by allocating higher bitwidths to sensitive layers, but existing methods solve the allocation for a single fixed memory budget.

arXiv:2607. 10137v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training quantization (PTQ) of large language models degrades sharply below 4-bit precision.
