Implementing auto adpq

auto_adpq

Adaptive Post-Training Quantization tooling (replicating AdpQ)

This repository implements tools and reference code to reproduce the ideas from AdpQ: A Zero-shot Calibration Free Adaptive Post Training Quantization Method for LLMs.

This README explains how to install, run tests, build documentation (including multi-version docs), and contribute.

Installation

Install from PyPI (recommended):

python -m pip install auto_adpq

Install the latest development version directly from GitHub:

python -m pip install "git+https://github.com/Tfloow/auto_adpq.git"

To develop locally (editable install):

git clone https://github.com/Tfloow/auto_adpq.git
cd auto_adpq
python -m pip install -e .

Makefile helper:

# Run formatting, linting, coverage and docs targets as defined in Makefile
make

Quick usage

Import the package and use the public API. Example (replace with real API):

from auto_adpq import Auto_AdpQ

Add a short usage snippet here specific to the package functions you expect users to try first.

Running tests & linters

Coverage test: 91%

• Run tests with pytest:

pytest -q

• Run full coverage report (Makefile target):

make coverage

• Format & lint with ruff (Makefile target):

make ruff

Debug mode

To obtain logs of the package, it is possible to enable the logging module. To activate it please create the new environment variable AUTO_ADPQ_DEBUG by running:

# Linux
export AUTO_ADPQ_DEBUG=1

# Windows
$Env:AUTO_ADPQ_DEBUG = 1

Documentation

The documentation can be found here.

Building the documentation

This project uses Sphinx for documentation. There are two common workflows:

• Build a single-version site (useful for local writing and previews):

python -m pip install -r docs/requirements.txt
python -m sphinx -b html docs docs/_build/html

• Build a multi-version site using sphinx-multiversion (we configure this in docs/conf.py). This produces one static site containing each built branch and tag (useful for publishing versioned docs with a dropdown selector):

python -m pip install -r docs/requirements.txt
sphinx-multiversion docs docs/_build/html-mv

Notes about versions

• The project includes a small template docs/_templates/versions.html which renders a versions dropdown when the site is built with sphinx-multiversion.
• Adjust smv_tag_whitelist and smv_branch_whitelist in docs/conf.py to control which tags/branches are included in the build.

Tasklist

• Optimize pydantic module AdpQQuantizedWeights
  • Currently, there is a major overhead when creating a new object to validate the field. Since it is used internally only, we could ditch the Pydantic module but would need to ensure proper dump and load function
• Support model and integrate with .safetensors

Contributing

Contributions are welcome. A suggested workflow:

1. Fork the repository and create a feature branch.
2. Add tests for new functionality.
3. Run ruff to format and lint.
4. Open a pull request describing the change.

Please include unit tests and keep the public API stable when possible.

Development notes

• Docs templates: docs/_templates/versions.html — version switcher used by sphinx-multiversion.
• Makefile targets: make ruff, make coverage, make docs (runs single and multiversion builds).
