How do I calculate the impact of INT4 quantization?

You can use the `calculate_quantization_metrics` tool. Provide your base model's quality score, latency, and memory, then specify 'INT4' as the quantization level.

Does task type affect the results?

Yes. Tasks like 'generation' or 'extraction' are more sensitive to precision loss. You can use `evaluate_task_sensitivity` to see how different task types scale degradation.

What are the supported quantization levels?

The server supports FP16, INT8, INT4, GPTQ, and AWQ. You can retrieve specific details for each using `get_quantization_presets`.

This MCP server provides deterministic tools to analyze how quantization affects AI model performance. Use calculate_quantization_metrics to predict quality degradation, memory reduction, and latency improvements for different compression levels like INT8 or AWQ. It helps engineers determine if a compressed model meets their specific task requirements, such as generation or extraction, by calculating throughput increases and checking against quality thresholds.
