bitnet.cpp is the official inference framework for 1-bit LLMs (e.g., BitNet b1.58). It offers a suite of optimized kernels, that support fast and lossless inference of 1.58-bit models on CPU (with NPU and GPU support coming next).
18 wrz 2024 · BitNet is a special transformers architecture that represents each parameter with only three values: (-1, 0, 1), offering a extreme quantization of just 1.58 ( l o g 2 (3) log_2(3) l o g 2 (3)) bits per parameter. However, it requires to train a model from scratch.
BITNET. This repository not only provides PyTorch implementations for training and evaluating 1.58-bit neural networks but also includes a unique integration where the experiments conducted automatically update a LaTeX-generated paper.
28 lut 2024 · Recent research, such as BitNet, is paving the way for a new era of 1-bit Large Language Models (LLMs). In this work, we introduce a 1-bit LLM variant, namely BitNet b1.58, in which every single parameter (or weight) of the LLM is ternary {-1, 0, 1}.

26 mar 2024 · BitNet b1.58 addresses this by halving activation bits, enabling a doubled context length with the same resources, with potential further compression to 4 bits or lower for 1.58-bit LLMs, a...
11 mar 2024 · When 2 numbers are quantized with the same bit count, the computational cost of floating point operations on the numbers reduces almost by the same factor of number of bits reduced (In Theory). This allows us the increase speed and reduce the ram consumption of ML models.
