Abstract

Quantization allows accelerating neural networks significantly, especially for mobile processors. Existing quantization methods require either training neural network from scratch or gives significant accuracy drop for the quantized model. Low bits quantization (e.g., 4- or 6-bit) task is a much more resource consumptive problem in comparison with 8-bit quantization, it requires a significant amount of labeled training data. We propose a new low-bit quantization method for mobile neural network architectures that doesn’t require training from scratch and a big amount of train labeled data and allows to avoid significant accuracy drop.
