Safety alignment—training large language models (LLMs) to refuse harmful requests while remaining helpful—is critical for responsible deployment. Prior work established that safety behaviors are governed by low-rank structures, suggesting parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) should be well-suit...

Large Language Models (LLMs) are primarily constrained by memory and bandwidth bottlenecks during deployment. Although Vector Quantization (VQ) has emerged as a promising solution, existing methods incur inference overhead due to massive codebook storage and intensive index lookups. Moreover, the...
