PolyQ: Codesigning End-to-End Quantization Framework for Scalable Edge CPU LLM I

CPUs are the most universal target for on-device LLM inference, but existing low-bit quantization methods offer either coarse operating points or fine-grained mixed precision that is difficult to execute efficiently on CPUs. We present Poly
