Learning Accurate Integer Transformer Machine-Translation Models

no code implementations • 3 Jan 2020 • Ephrem Wu

We describe a method for training accurate Transformer machine-translation models to run inference using 8-bit integer (INT8) hardware matrix multipliers, as opposed to the more costly single-precision floating-point (FP32) hardware.
