Current safety alignment of foundation models largely follows a \emph{one-size-fits-all} paradigm, applying the same refusal policy across users and contexts. As a result, models m…
Q-realign: Piggybacking Realignment on Quantization for Safe and Efficient LLM Deployment
Qitao Tan, Xiaoying Song, Ningxi Cheng +6
Public large language models (LLMs) are typically safety-aligned during pretraining, yet task-specific fine-tuning required for deployment often erodes this alignment and introduce…
End-to-End On-Device Quantization-Aware Training for LLMs at Inference Cost
Qitao Tan, Xiaoying Song, Jin Lu +9
Quantization is an effective technique to reduce the deployment cost of large language models (LLMs), and post-training quantization (PTQ) has been widely studied due to its effici…
