GPTQ-intrinsic LoRA: A Near-optimal Algorithm for Low-precision Quantization with Low-rank Adaptation
arXiv:2606.01412v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training quantization is widely used for compressing large neural networks, but aggressive low-bit quantization can significantly degrade model quality. A common remedy is to augment the quantized weights with a low-rank correction, leading to approximations of the form $W\approx Q+LR$. In this paper, we study this low-precision plus low-rank representation through the layer-wise reconstruction objective $\|XW-X(Q+LR)\|_F^2$, where $X$ is...
AAAC: Activation-Aware Adaptive Codebooks for 4-bit LLM Weight Quantization
arXiv:2605.08692v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Post-training weight-only quantization to 4 bits is widely used to reduce the memory and compute costs of large language model inference. Existing PTQ methods, such as AWQ and GPTQ, improve how weights are mapped onto a fixed 4-bit grid through scaling, clipping, or error compensation. To further improve accuracy, methods such as OmniQuant and QuIP\# uses gradient-assisted algorithms at the cost of hours of quantization time.
WaterSIC: Information-Theoretically (Near) Optimal Linear Layer Quantization
arXiv:2603.04956v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This paper considers the problem of converting a given dense linear layer to low precision. The tradeoff between compressed length and output discrepancy is analyzed information theoretically (IT). It is shown that a popular GPTQ algorithm may have an arbitrarily large gap to the IT limit.
High-Rate Quantized Matrix Multiplication II
arXiv:2605.13768v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This is the second part of the work investigating quantized matrix multiplication (MatMul). In part I we considered the case of calibration-free quantization, whereas here we discuss the setting where covariance matrix $\Sigma_X$ of the columns of the second factor is available. This setting arises in the ubiquitous task of weight-only post-training quantization of LLMs.
Qift: Shift-Friendly No-Zero W2 Post-Training Quantization for Rotated W2A4/KV4 LLM Inference
arXiv:2606.02823v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Two-bit weight quantization is attractive for memory-efficient LLM inference, but the standard W2 level set {-2,-1,0,+1} often collapses under aggressive W2A4/KV4 settings. We study the scalar level-set geometry of two-bit weights in a Hadamard-rotated quantization pipeline. Conventional asymmetric W2 substantially improves over the standard level set, indicating that W2A4 failure is not only a bit-width problem but also a reconstruction-level...
Memory-Bound but Not Bandwidth-Limited: The Physical AI Inference Gap in Batch-1 LLM Decode
arXiv:2605.30571v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Physical AI systems, including robots, autonomous vehicles, embodied agents and edge copilots, often run a different inference workload from cloud LLM serving: single-stream, batch-1 autoregressive decode, where one robot, camera feed or user session waits on the next token. This workload is usually described as memory-bandwidth-bound. Each decode step streams model weights and the active KV cache, so latency should scale with peak HBM bandwidth.
Widening the Gap: Exploiting LLM Quantization via Outlier Injection
Announce Type: replace Abstract: LLM quantization has become essential for memory-efficient deployment. Recent work has shown that quantization schemes can pose critical security risks: an adversary may release a model that appears benign in full precision but exhibits malicious behavior once quantized by users. However, existing quantization-conditioned attacks have been limited to relatively simple quantization methods, where the attacker can estimate weight regions that remain invariant...
WUSH: Near-Optimal Adaptive Transforms for LLM Quantization
arXiv:2512.00956v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Quantizing LLM weights and activations is a standard approach for efficient deployment, but a few extreme outliers can stretch the dynamic range and amplify low-bit quantization errors. Prior transform-based mitigations (e.g., Hadamard rotations) are fixed and data-agnostic, and their optimality for quantization has remained unclear. We derive closed-form optimal linear blockwise transforms for joint weight-activation quantization under...
