Researchers have developed qZACH-ViT, a new model designed for efficient and interpretable medical image classification. This model is a quantization-aware extension of the ZACH-ViT backbone, incorporating intrinsic patch-level class evidence. A novel optimization technique called Recursive Attribution-Stabilized Optimization (RASO) was also introduced to improve gradient matching and reduce conflicting attribution components. Evaluations on MedMNIST datasets demonstrated that qZACH-ViT with RASO achieved improved performance over the baseline, with significant gains in primary metrics and minimal changes in predictions after INT8 conversion.
