A browser studio for exploring LLM quantization below one byte per weight, with a Pareto frontier explorer, BitNet 1.58b bit-packing registers and a layer sensitivity simulator. For engineers and students. QuantBench is a kit in the Education category, listed by Mindket. It is free. This is version 1, last updated on 2026-11-12. Download it on this page, a zip of its files. Nothing in it runs by itself. Made by prajwalpujari16 ## About ### What it is QuantBench is a browser studio for exploring LLM quantization below one byte per weight. It offers analytical exploration before you quantize anything, bit-packing registers for BitNet 1.58b ternary weights, and a simulator for how sensitive each layer is. It is a static page, so nothing runs on a server. ### Who it suits It suits people who want to see what happens to a model's quality and size when its weights use fewer bits. Who might use this studio | Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | ML engineering | Engineers | Weigh compression against quality before quantizing | Explore the frontier of size against signal quality | | Education | Students | Learn how low-bit weights are packed | Watch ternary values fill a register | | AI research | Researchers | Reason about which layers tolerate compression | Try the layer sensitivity simulator | If you need to quantize a real model file, you can skip it, since this is an analytical explorer. ### Where to use it You can use it online or open its files on your own computer. - Web browser: the Space's page on Hugging Face, with nothing to install - Windows, macOS or Linux: the downloaded files, opened in a browser - Python: a PyPI package of the same name, named in the readme What the studio is good for | Use case | Who | What they get back | | --- | --- | --- | | Find a compression trade-off | Engineers | A frontier that plots compression against SQNR | | Learn bit packing | Students | Live registers for BitNet 1.58b, INT4 and 2:4 sparsity | | Spot fragile layers | Researchers | A simulation of per-layer sensitivity | ### How to set it up The hosted page needs nothing. To get the files you need Python and pip. - Python, with pip - Any web browser 1. Install the huggingface\_hub package. 2. Download the Space's files into a folder. 3. Move into that folder. 4. Open index.html in a web browser. ```sh pip install -U huggingface_hub hf download prajwalpujari16/quantbench --repo-type space --local-dir quantbench cd quantbench ``` The readme also names a PyPI package, which installs with this command. ```sh pip install quantbench ``` ### How to use it Open the Space online, or open index.html from your downloaded folder. Then try the three interactive tools, starting with the frontier explorer. The interactive tools | Tool | What it does | | --- | --- | | SQNR against compression Pareto frontier explorer | Shows the trade-off between signal quality and compression | | Bit-packing registers | Show BitNet 1.58b, INT4 and 2:4 sparsity packing live | | Transformer layer sensitivity simulator | Simulates how sensitive each layer is to quantization | ### Example You open the Pareto frontier explorer and look at how signal quality drops as compression rises. Then you open the bit-packing registers to see how BitNet 1.58b ternary values are packed together. ### For newcomers and experts If you are new to this, remember that quantization stores weights in fewer bits to save memory. Start with the frontier explorer and move along it slowly. If you know the field, the page pairs an SQNR against compression frontier with live packing registers and a per-layer sensitivity simulator. It names Qwen2.5 0.5B Instruct and Llama 3.1 8B, and a Pareto dataset of its own. Open the studio → Pick a tool to explore → Adjust bits, layers or settings → Read the trade-off it shows ### Good to know The exploration is analytical, so it does not touch a real model file. - Static page: plain HTML and CSS, with no server code - Models: the Space names Qwen2.5 0.5B Instruct and Llama 3.1 8B - License: apache-2 - Cost to run: none named - Data it reaches: nothing beyond its own files is named in the notes - Not for: quantizing a real model file ## README ````markdown # QuantBench A browser studio for exploring LLM quantization below one byte per weight, with a Pareto frontier explorer, BitNet 1.58b bit-packing registers and a layer sensitivity simulator.
