2-bit GGUF models achieve 63% SWE-rebench pass rate with calibration

A new method has been developed to calibrate 2-bit quantized language models, specifically GGUF formats under 10GB, for agentic coding tasks. These calibrated models, such as Qwopus3.6-27B-Coder, achieve over 60% pass rates on the SWE-rebench benchmark. The calibration process utilizes real agentic coding logs and an importance matrix to maintain performance while significantly reducing model size and increasing decode speed. AI

IMPACT Enables more efficient deployment of capable coding agents on resource-constrained hardware.
