Description: In this talk, we dive into techniques for accelerating inference in transformer-based models by optimizing their linear layers. We'll explore the role of quantization in reducing computation and memory overhead, and discuss how custom, hardware-friendly kernels can unlock significant speedups.
Dr. Hicham Badri is a research scientist specializing in computer vision and large language models. He holds a PhD from Universite de Bordeaux/INRIA. During his doctoral studies, he focused on developing efficient optimization methods for machine learning applications, earning him the AFRIF best PhD award in 2015.
