ReSET: Accurate Latency-Critical NVFP4 Reasoning via Step-Aware Temperature Scaling
Researchers have developed ReSET, a novel method to improve the accuracy and efficiency of large reasoning models (LRMs) when using NVFP4 low-precision inference. ReSET addresses quantization-induced accuracy degradation by employing step-aware temperature scaling, which adapts decoding temperature based on token and step-level entropy. Additionally, a new CUDA-core kernel is introduced to accelerate latency-critical autoregressive decoding, achieving significant speedups over existing methods. AI
