"Bitnet.cpp: Efficient Edge Inference for Ternary LLMs"
arXiv:2502.11880v1 [cs.LG] (18 pp)
Core Invariants & Taxonomy:
1. Systematic Taxonomy of Edge mpGEMM:
- MAD-based: I2_S (2 bpw, lossless)
- LUT-based:
* TL1_0: 2 bpw, per-block activation quantization (fast, block_size=256)
* TL1_1: 2 bpw, per-token activation quantization (lossless)
* TL2_0: 1.67 bpw (5 bits per 3 weights), per-block activation quantization (fast)
* TL2_1: 1.67 bpw, per-token activation quantization (lossless)
2. Element-wise Mirror Consolidation:
- Halves 3^3 = 27 ternary states down to ceil(27/2) = 14 states (indices 0..13).
- Fits inside 128-bit SIMD registers (vpshufb with 16 int8 slots).
- Signed-Unsigned Weight Splitting: 4-bit unsigned magnitude index + 1-bit sign bit.
3. Lossless Inference Guarantee:
- Bit-exact numerical equivalence with BitLinear b1.58 forward pass when using
per-token activation scale (TL1_1, TL2_1, I2_S).
