SandwichQuant framework enhances model quantization efficiency

Researchers have introduced SandwichQuant, a novel two-stage framework designed to improve the efficiency of model quantization. This method focuses on the normalization-affine parameter subspace, revealing that this low-dimensional subspace is highly effective for correction during quantization. SandwichQuant adapts parameters before and after quantization to enhance robustness and compensate for residual errors, demonstrating consistent improvements across vision models and large language models under various low-bit quantization settings.
