During a two-month period, Zhaoan contributed to the alibaba/rtp-llm repository by developing and refining FP8 quantization features for dense and Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models. Zhaoan implemented a fused RMS normalization with FP8 support and expanded the quantization testing framework, focusing on per-token a8w8 input GEMM operations. Using C++ and PyTorch, Zhaoan improved model throughput and resource efficiency while reducing quantization risk. In addition, Zhaoan addressed stability issues in ROCm MOE integration, ensuring reliable FP8 weight loading and correct FP16 output typing in tests. The work demonstrated depth in GPU programming, quantization, and robust unit testing practices.
