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).
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}.
11 mar 2024 · Existing Quantization Approaches Vs BitNet 1.58bit. Most quantization algorithms present in the market requires a pretrained model in full precision. And one would apply techniques such as Post Training Quantization and Quantization Aware Training for such algorithms to work effectively.
9 mar 2024 · 1.58 BitNet uses low-precision binary weights and quantized activations to 8 bits, and high-precision for optimizer states and gradient functions during training. It can be represented as a...
