Deterministic LLM Inference Across GPU Kernels: Power-of-Two INT8 Quantization Scales and the Limits of Tolerance-Based Conformance

arXiv cs.LG · 2026-09-02 Cached

This paper evaluates conformance suites for INT8 quantization in LLM inference, finding that power-of-two scales enable cross-kernel bitwise determinism, while tolerance-based checks are limited to preconditions and boundedness.
