### Post quantization #### Post quantization
MindSpore Lite supports both weight quantization and full quantization. Currently, Weights can be quantized into 1 ~ 16 bits according to user configuration. In internal testing, quantization of networks, such as classification, detection, segmentation and transformer are well supported. To ensure high accuracy of quantized models, MindSpore Lite uses a pipeline quantization method. In the first phase, the weight and activation value are quantized using linear quantization methods, such as MIN-MAX. In the second phase, the quantization error is analyzed, and uses statistical methods to compensate loss caused by fp32 quantization to a fixed point such as Int8 to quantized models. The features of Post-training quantization are: MindSpore Lite supports both weight quantization and full quantization.

Using MindSpore Lite quantization, the precision of A8W8 (8-bit activation value quantization and 8-bit weight quantization) decreases from 0.82% to 0.4% after accuracy loss compensation, for 7-bit quantization, the precision loss is still no more than 1%.
