SCULPT is a training-time method that enhances the readiness of edge vision models for low-bit post‑training quantization (PTQ). It introduces a topology‑aware activation regularizer to reduce skewness and kurtosis, and a stable percentile‑based clipping mechanism that learns deployment‑ready activation bounds during ordinary FP32 fine‑tuning. The resulting clipping bounds can be directly exported into standard PTQ workflows for INT8 or lower‑bit settings such as W4A8.
