NANQ: Noise-Floor-Aware Mixed-Precision Non-Uniform Quantization for Analog Compute-in-Memory
Yizhe Chen, Wenshuai Yao, Saiya Wang +6
Analog compute-in-memory (CIM) enables energy-efficient neural network inference, but device variation and read noise can severely degrade low-bit quantized models. Existing CIM-or…

Extending Straight-Through Estimation for Robust Neural Networks on Analog CIM Hardware
Yuannuo Feng, Wenyong Zhou, Yuexi Lyu +4
Analog Compute-In-Memory (CIM) architectures promise significant energy efficiency gains for neural network inference, but suffer from complex hardware-induced noise that poses maj…

Exploring Layer-wise Information Effectiveness for Post-Training Quantization in Small Language Models
He Xiao, Qingyao Yang, Dirui Xie +7
Large language models with billions of parameters are often over-provisioned: many layers contribute little unique information yet dominate the memory and energy footprint during i…
