TORQ framework enhances LLM accuracy with MXFP4 quantization

Researchers have developed TORQ, a new framework for quantizing Large Language Models (LLMs) using the MXFP4 format. This method addresses accuracy degradation issues by analyzing and correcting imbalances in activation quantization. TORQ employs a two-level orthogonal rotation strategy to optimize the activation space, significantly improving LLM accuracy with 4-bit floating-point quantization. AI

    TORQ: Two-Level Orthogonal Rotation for MXFP4 Quantization

    As Large Language Models (LLMs) advance toward practical deployment, the Microscaling FP4 (MXFP4) format has emerged as a cornerstone for next-generation low-bit inference, owing to its ability to balance high dynamic range with hardware efficiency. However, directly applying MXF…
