Together AI has introduced YAQA, a novel post-training quantization technique for large language models. This method aims to preserve the original model's outputs more effectively than existing algorithms by directly minimizing KL divergence. YAQA achieves this by approximating the Hessian of the KL divergence, leading to over 30% reduction in KL divergence compared to current rounding methods and improved performance on downstream tasks. AI
IMPACT YAQA's improved quantization could lead to more efficient deployment of large language models with minimal performance degradation.
