Mixed Quantization Scaling Law

A Mixed Quantization Scaling Law is a quantization scaling law that optimizes performance-efficiency trade-offs through heterogeneous bit-precision allocation across model components.

• AKA: Heterogeneous Quantization Scaling Law, Multi-Precision Scaling Law, Adaptive Quantization Scaling Law, Non-Uniform Quantization Scaling Law.
• Context:
  • It can typically optimize Mixed Quantization Bit Allocation across heterogeneous mixed quantization network layers.
  • It can typically balance Mixed Quantization Memory Footprint with mixed quantization model accuracy.
  • It can typically identify Mixed Quantization Sensitivity Patterns for different mixed quantization layer types.
  • It can typically enable Mixed Quantization Hardware Acceleration on mixed quantization specialized processors.
  • It can typically minimize Mixed Quantization Performance Degradation through optimal mixed quantization precision assignment.
  • ...
  • It can often achieve Mixed Quantization Compression Ratios superior to mixed quantization uniform approaches.
  • It can often reveal Mixed Quantization Layer Importance through mixed quantization sensitivity analysis.
  • It can often support Mixed Quantization Granularity Control at mixed quantization channel levels.
  • It can often facilitate Mixed Quantization Energy Efficiency through mixed quantization compute optimization.
  • ...
  • It can range from being a Uniform Mixed Quantization Scaling Law to being an Adaptive Mixed Quantization Scaling Law, depending on its mixed quantization allocation strategy.
  • It can range from being a Coarse-Grained Mixed Quantization Scaling Law to being a Fine-Grained Mixed Quantization Scaling Law, depending on its mixed quantization granularity level.
  • It can range from being a Static Mixed Quantization Scaling Law to being a Dynamic Mixed Quantization Scaling Law, depending on its mixed quantization adaptation timing.
  • It can range from being a Weight-Only Mixed Quantization Scaling Law to being a Full-Tensor Mixed Quantization Scaling Law, depending on its mixed quantization component coverage.
  • ...
  • It can integrate with Precision Scaling Laws for mixed quantization theoretical foundation.
  • It can combine with Neural Network Architecture design for mixed quantization hardware co-optimization.
  • It can inform Mixed Quantization Training Strategys through mixed quantization gradient flow analysis.
  • It can validate Mixed Quantization Deployment Decisions for mixed quantization edge devices.
  • ...
• Examples:
  • Mixed Quantization Scaling Law Implementations, such as:
    • ResQ Mixed Quantization Scaling using mixed quantization low-rank residuals.
    • EAGL Mixed Quantization Scaling applying mixed quantization entropy approximation.
    • ALPS Mixed Quantization Scaling using mixed quantization accuracy-aware selection.
    • AWQ Mixed Quantization Scaling with mixed quantization activation-aware weighting.
  • Mixed Quantization Scaling Law Applications, such as:
    • Mixed Quantization LLM Compression for mixed quantization deployment optimization.
    • Mixed Quantization Vision Model with mixed quantization layer-wise precision.
    • Mixed Quantization Edge Inference on mixed quantization mobile platforms.
    • Mixed Quantization Cloud Deployment for mixed quantization cost reduction.
  • ...
• Counter-Examples:
  • Uniform Quantization Law, which applies same precision across all layers.
  • Binary Quantization Law, which uses only 1-bit precision rather than mixed precision.
  • Full Precision Scaling Law, which maintains 32-bit precision throughout.
