Title: EdgeRazor: A Lightweight Framework for Large Language Models via Mixed-Precision Quantization-Aware Distillation

Abstract:
arXiv:2605.04062v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent years have witnessed an increasing interest in deploying LLMs on resource-constrained devices, among which quantization has emerged as a promising lightweight technique that converts full-precision model weights and activations into lower-bit formats. Existing weight quantization approaches can be roughly divided into three categories: Post-Training Quantization (PTQ) that calibrates quantized parameters on a small dataset without retraini
