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.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.
11 mar 2024 · The resultant values in theory can be represented with 1.58bits by information encoding theory. Since bits can’t be fractional we can represent them in 2 bits. Quantization Function Implementation in Pytorch. Threshold calculation: def compute_adjustment_factor(self, input_tensor: torch.Tensor): absmean_weight = torch.mean(torch.abs(input_tensor))

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}. It matches the full-precision (i.e., FP16 or BF16) Transformer LLM with the same model size and ...
22 lip 2024 · This block-wise quantization uses the scale factor (s_super) from the “super” block to quantize the scale factor (s_sub) from the “sub” block. The quantization level of each scale factor might differ with the “super” block generally having a higher precision than the scale factor of the “sub” block.
