The Quantization Myth

Demystifying Quantization Do you need high bit-precision to operate neural networks? More specifically, do you need a high bit-precision processor to run neural network inferences in the same level of fidelity that you’ve trained them? These concepts seem to be popular myths but are not true. A large part of the confusion around these myths ...
