In the field of deep learning, the prevalence of models initially trained with 32-bit precision is a testament to its robustness and accuracy. However, the continuous evolution of these models often demands further training, which can be…

Pretraining transformers are generally time-consuming. Fully quantized training (FQT) is a promising approach to speed up pretraining. However, most FQT methods adopt a quantize-compute-dequantize procedure, which often leads to suboptimal…
