QuIP# aims to revolutionize model quantization through a blend of incoherence processing and advanced lattice codebooks. By switching to a Hadamard transform-based incoherence approach, QuIP# enhances GPU efficiency, making weight matrices more Gaussian-like and ideal for quantization with its improved lattice codebooks.

This new method has already seen some adoption by projects like llama.cpp. The use of the Quip-# methodology has been implemented in the form of imatrix calculations. The importance matrix is calculated from a dataset such as wiki.train.raw and will output the perplexity on the given dataset.
