COVERCAL selects PTQ calibration samples via weighted set cover over outlier channels, with a stylized clipping model showing missed coverage upper-bounds surrogate loss, yielding gains over random and other baselines on LLaMA and Mistral models.
SpinQuant learns optimal rotations to enable accurate 4-bit quantization of LLM weights, activations, and KV cache, reducing the zero-shot gap to full precision to 2.9 points on LLaMA-2 7B.
RouterBench supplies a standardized benchmark, 405k+ inference dataset, theoretical framework, and comparative analysis for multi-LLM routing systems.
Medusa augments LLMs with multiple decoding heads and tree-based attention to predict and verify several tokens in parallel, yielding 2.2-3.6x inference speedup via two fine-tuning regimes.
GEMQ applies global LP-based expert importance estimation and router fine-tuning within progressive quantization to cut memory and speed inference in MoE LLMs with little accuracy loss.
SplitQ improves low-bit PTQ for VLMs by isolating modality-specific outlier channels via MOCD and applying dual-branch adaptive calibration via ACC, outperforming prior methods on six datasets across W4A8 to W3A2 settings.
OSAQ suppresses weight outliers in LLMs via a closed-form additive transformation from the Hessian's stable null space, improving 2-bit quantization perplexity by over 40% versus vanilla GPTQ with no inference overhead.
WindowQuant performs window-adaptive mixed-precision KV cache quantization guided by similarity to the text prompt, with reordering to enable efficient inference in VLMs.
BitRL enables on-device RL agents via 1-bit quantized language models, delivering 10-16x memory reduction and 3-5x energy efficiency gains with 85-98% retained performance.

ASVD compresses LLMs by 10-30% and KV caches by 50% via activation-aware SVD that absorbs outliers into transformed weights and calibrates per-layer sensitivity.
Attribution-guided pruning with contrastive relevance identifies behavior-specific circuits in small LLMs and removes as little as 0.03-0.3% of components to reduce toxicity or repetition while preserving general performance.
EntroLLM applies tensor-level mixed quantization to reduce weight entropy then uses Huffman coding for up to 65% storage savings and faster inference on memory-limited edge devices without retraining.
