RDQ quantization method targets accuracy loss below 4-bit in LLMs

A research paper proposes Residual Distribution Quantization, a post-training quantization approach for large language models. The authors attribute the sharp accuracy drop seen below 4-bit precision to distributional drift in the residual stream, where quantization error introduced at each transformer layer builds up in the shared representation. Their method aims to correct this accumulated error to preserve model quality at lower bit widths.
