oBERT-3-downstream-dense-QAT-squadv1

This model is obtained with The Optimal BERT Surgeon: Scalable and Accurate Second-Order Pruning for Large Language Models.

It corresponds to the model presented in the Table 3 - 3 Layers - 0% Sparsity - QAT, and it represents an upper bound for performance of the corresponding pruned and quantized models:

  • 80% unstructured QAT: neuralmagic/oBERT-3-downstream-pruned-unstructured-80-QAT-squadv1
  • 80% block-4 QAT: neuralmagic/oBERT-3-downstream-pruned-block4-80-QAT-squadv1
  • 90% unstructured QAT: neuralmagic/oBERT-3-downstream-pruned-unstructured-90-QAT-squadv1
  • 90% block-4 QAT: neuralmagic/oBERT-3-downstream-pruned-block4-90-QAT-squadv1

SQuADv1 dev-set:

EM = 76.06
F1 = 84.25
