PROFILE

Asaf Karnieli

During a two-month period, Akarnieli developed advanced quantization features for the intel/neural-compressor repository, focusing on efficient large-model deployment. He implemented Hybrid GPTQ support, enabling mixed-precision quantization with int4 weights and FP8 activations, and introduced new modules and quantizer classes in Python and C++. In the following month, he delivered block-wise GPTQ quantization with sharded checkpoints and safetensors integration, optimizing memory usage and performance for HPU-based inference. His work addressed the challenges of scalable model optimization and deployment, demonstrating depth in deep learning, PyTorch, and model quantization while aligning with broader production-readiness and compatibility goals for neural_compressor.
