| Challenge: | Quantization is a viable solution for pre-trained language models, but most existing methods are task-specific and require customized training and quantization with a large number of trainable parameters. |
| Approach: | They propose a "quantize before fine-tuning" framework that allows for quantization with a large number of trainable parameters on each individual task. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework is compatible with quantization-aware training and post-training quantization and corrects quantization errors. |
