Adding experimental narrow per-channel weight normalization-based signed integer quantizer based on Quantized Neural Networks for Low-Precision Accumulation with Guaranteed Overflow Avoidance, by I. Colbert, A. Pappalardo, and J. Petri-Koenig, with support for both L1 and L2 weight normalization.
Using the decoupled rescaling integer quantization arithmetic where the weight normalization statistics calculation (
d_w
) and norm vector parameterization (g
) are combined with the scaling factor to become the pre-clipping scaling factor (i.e.,pre_scale
) and the conventional scaling factor (s
) is the post-clipping scaling factor (i.e.,post_scale
). For further details on the arithmetic, seeParameterPreScalingWeightNorm
. For further details on the weight normalization-based quantization technique, see the referenced paper.
