...Quantized inference is significantly faster than floating point inference. For example, models that we’ve run on the Qualcomm® Hexagon™ DSP rather than on the Qualcomm® Kryo™ CPU have resulted in a 5x to 15x speedup. Plus, an 8-bit model also has a 4x smaller memory footprint relative to a 32-bit model. However, often when quantizing a machine learning model (e.g., from 32-bit floating point to an 8-bit fixed point value), the model accuracy is sacrificed.

Transformer Engine (TE) is a library for accelerating Transformer models on NVIDIA GPUs, including using 8-bit floating point (FP8) precision on Hopper GPUs, to provide better performance with lower memory utilization in both training and inference. TE provides a collection of highly optimized building blocks for popular Transformer architectures and an automatic mixed precision-like API that can be used seamlessly with your framework-specific code.

Linux kernel fork-off with cloud and machine learning features

...The main goal of this project is to create an SSD implementation that is well documented for those who are interested in a low-level understanding of the model. The provided tutorials, documentation and detailed comments hopefully make it a bit easier to dig into the code and adapt or build upon the model than with most other implementations out there (Keras or otherwise) that provide little to no documentation and comments. Use one of the provided trained models for transfer learning.

BitNet is a machine learning research implementation that explores extremely low-precision neural network architectures designed to dramatically reduce the computational cost of large language models. The project implements the BitNet architecture described in research on scaling transformer models using extremely low-bit quantization techniques. In this approach, neural network weights are quantized to approximately one bit per parameter, allowing models to operate with far lower memory usage than traditional 16-bit or 32-bit neural networks. The architecture introduces specialized layers such as BitLinear, which replace standard linear projections in transformer networks with quantized operations. ...
