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).
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}.
18 wrz 2024 · BitNet is an architecture introduced by Microsoft Research that uses extreme quantization, representing each parameter with only three values: -1, 0, and 1. This results in a model that uses just 1.58 bits per parameter, significantly reducing computational and memory requirements.
This is a reproduction of the BitNet b1.58 paper. The models are trained with RedPajama dataset for 100B tokens. The hypers, as well as two-stage LR and weight decay, are implemented as suggested in their following paper. All models are open-source in the repo.
29 lut 2024 · BitNet b1.58 emerges as a solution, utilizing 1-bit ternary parameters to dramatically lighten the load on computational resources while maintaining high model performance. This section will...
26 mar 2024 · Unlike its predecessor, BitNet b1.58 replaces the conventional nn.Linear layers with BitLinear layers, leveraging 1.58-bit weights and 8-bit activations.
