Displacement Is Not Direction: Evaluating Fidelity Metrics for Quantized LLM Deployment

Miloš Nikolić, Ali Hadi Zadeh, Enrique Torres Sanchez +1

Fidelity metrics, such as per-token KL divergence (KLD) against a high-precision reference, are often used in practice as low-cost proxies for benchmark quality. We test this pract…
