phase0_setup.py — Baseline Setup and Reproduction
Clones TurboQuant (cuTile) repo, downloads Qwen 2.5-1.5B and WikiText-103
calibration data, reproduces baseline results, and saves them to
results/baseline_reproduction.json.
Baseline targets (within ±5%):
- ~5.02× compression ratio
- ~0.985 cosine similarity on attention output
- ~144.7 tok/s generation throughput
Usage:
python phase0_setup.py [--quick] [--results-dir PATH]
