FlexQuant: Elastic Quantization Framework for Locally Hosted LLM on Edge Devices
FlexQuant introduces an elasticity framework to deploy Large Language Models (LLMs) on edge devices by generating an ensemble of Elastic Quantization Models (EQMs). This method provides a 15x improvement in transition granularity and 10x storage reduction compared to existing state-of-the-art methods, allowing dynamic adjustment of model precision based on application needs.
