A new quantization method called Z Image HSWQ Hybrid ConvRot NVFP4 has been developed, offering improved VRAM usage and processing speed compared to previous HSWQ approaches. This method diverges significantly from earlier HSWQ theories, such as Histogram MSE, full SVD, and Histogram Cosine, by introducing a concept called Trajectory-Sensitivity. Trajectory-Sensitivity ranks layers based on the divergence their quantization error causes after propagating through the entire model and sampler, representing a universal theory for error interaction and nonlinear amplification in iterative sampling systems.
