Training LLMs at ultra-low precision remains a formidable challenge. Direct low-bit QAT often suffers from convergence instability and substantial training costs, exacerbated by quantization noise from heavy-tailed outlier channels and error accumulation across layers. To address these issues, we...

Binary quantization represents the most extreme form of compression, reducing weights to \pm 1 for maximal memory and computational efficiency. While recent sparsity-aware binarization achieves sub-1-bit compression via weight pruning, it faces critical challenger: performance degradation, mask-m...

Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved exceptional performance in complex reasoning via Chain-of-Thought (CoT), yet the associated computational costs remain prohibitive. CoT reasoning contains significant untapped efficiency potential across two dimensions: temporal redundancy , where reason...

Large language model (LLM) reinforcement learning (RL) pipelines are often bottlenecked by rollout generation, making end-to-end training slow. Recent work mitigates this by running rollouts with quantization to accelerate decoding, which is the most expensive stage of the RL loop. However, these...
