Symmetric per-tensor scalar quantizer with range ±(2^(bits−1)−1). This is not LLM.int8(), GPTQ or AWQ. Ideal compression ignores scale metadata and runtime packing. Scalar error does not measure language-model accuracy.
Text / 原始公式
scale=max|x|/(2^(bits−1)−1); q=round(x/scale); x̂=q×scale
Low scalar MSE does not guarantee stable downstream model quality.

打开实验 →quantization-2 / 07Is “Eight-bit reconstruction” a benchmark of a deployed language model?
No. Symmetric per-tensor scalar quantizer with range ±(2^(bits−1)−1). This is not LLM.int8(), GPTQ or AWQ. Ideal compression ignores scale metadata and runtime packing. Scalar error does not measure language-model accuracy.

打开实验 →quantization-2 / 08Which evidence should you report for “Eight-bit reconstruction”?
Compare reconstruction error, MSE, scale and ideal compression. Export inputs, engine, result and method; distinguish synthetic fixtures from observed production data.

打开实验 →quantization-2 / 10What is the next validation step after “Eight-bit reconstruction”?
Low scalar MSE does not guarantee stable downstream model quality. Test the hypothesis on a representative held-out workload and document a baseline, success metric and stopping rule before claiming deployment readiness.

打开实验 →假设、参考实现与验收
这是对称逐张量舍入;理想压缩率不含元数据。全零张量安全尺度取 1。标量重建 MSE 不是 LLM 质量。
已复核引擎公式、场景预设及数值保护。固定种子的合成输入不是生产基准。
运行前:预测一个边界情况
More quantization levels usually reduce reconstruction error.
提示:隔离假设
固定基线输入,只改变一个参数或边界;同时比较数值与声明单位。单例通过仅验证该样例。
最小可运行算例
将算例及所链接模块保存在同一目录。使用 Node.js 22 或更高版本,然后运行 node quantization-2.mjs. 无需第三方运行依赖。
import {calculate,network} from './academy-core.mjs';
const params={
"values": "-1,-0.7,-0.2,0,0.15,0.4,0.8,1",
"bits": 8
};
const result=calculate('quantization',params);
console.log(result.metrics);测试与迁移
