Data Quality-Aware Mixed-Precision Quantization via Hybrid Reinforcement Learning

Abstract: Mixed-precision quantization mostly predetermines the model bit-width settings before actual training due to the non-differential bit-width sampling process, obtaining suboptimal performance ...

Advances to low-bit quantization enable LLMs on edge devices

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly being deployed on edge devices—hardware that processes data locally near the data source, such as smartphones, laptops, and robots. Running LLMs on these ...
