Attend to Your Own Thoughts: Breaking the Barrier for Post-Training Quantization of Reasoning LLMs through the Lens of 1.58-Bit Quantization

We propose ScaleQ-1.58, a scalable ternary post-training quantization (PTQ) framework for reasoning LLMs. Its core insight stems from an empirical finding: although modern LLMs are typically trained to exhibit chain-of-thought reasoning capabilities, in the PTQ regime, even the latest CAT-Q method based on learning-bas...
