@@ -35,6 +35,7 @@ Weight quantization also reduces disk size requirements by approximately 50%.
35
  Only weights and activations of the linear operators within transformers blocks are quantized.
36
  Weights are quantized with a symmetric static per-channel scheme, where a fixed linear scaling factor is applied between INT8 and floating point representations for each output channel dimension.
37
  Activations are quantized with a symmetric dynamic per-token scheme, computing a linear scaling factor at runtime for each token between INT8 and floating point representations.
 
38
  The [GPTQ](https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.17323) algorithm is applied for quantization, as implemented in the [llm-compressor](https://github.com/vllm-project/llm-compressor) library.
39
  GPTQ used a 1% damping factor and 256 sequences sequences taken from Neural Magic's [LLM compression calibration dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/neuralmagic/LLM_compression_calibration).
