The model is trained in floating point and then weights and activations are quantized as a post-processing step. This is the simplest approach and does not require access to the training data. Unlike Quantization-Aware Training (QAT), PTQ sets weight and activation quantization parameters directly, making it low-overhead and suitable for limited or unlabeled data situations. However, not readjusting the weights after quantizing, especially in low-precision quantization can lead to very different behavior and thus lower accuracy. To tackle this, techniques like bias correction, equalizing weight ranges, and adaptive rounding methods have been developed. PTQ can also be applied in zero-shot scenarios, where no training or testing data are available. This method has been made even more efficient to benefit compute- and memory- intensive large language models. Recently, SmoothQuant, a training-free, accuracy-preserving, and general-purpose PTQ solution which enables 8-bit weight, 8-bit activation quantization for LLMs, has been developed, demonstrating up to 1.56x speedup and 2x memory reduction for LLMs with negligible loss in accuracy [[@xiao2022smoothquant]](https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.10438). - In PTQ, a pretrained model undergoes a calibration process, as shown in @fig-PTQ-diagram.

So, the emphasis shifts to curating high-quality datasets that better reflect real-world complexity, developing more informative evaluation benchmarks, and carefully considering how data is sampled, preprocessed, and augmented. The goal is to optimize model behavior by improving the data rather than just optimizing metrics on flawed datasets. Data-centric AI critically examines and enhances the data itself to produce beneficial AI. This reflects an important evolution in mindset as the field addresses the shortcomings of narrow benchmarking. This section will explore the key differences between model-centric and data-centric approaches to AI. This distinction has important implications for how we benchmark AI systems. Specifically, we will see how focusing on data quality and Efficiency can directly improve machine learning performance as an alternative to optimizing model architectures solely. The data-centric approach recognizes that models are only as good as their training data. So, enhancing data curation, evaluation benchmarks, and data handling processes can produce AI systems that are safer, fairer, and more robust. Rethinking benchmarking to prioritize data alongside models represents an important evolution as the field strives to deliver trustworthy real-world impact.

Every time a client trains the model, they must communicate their updates back to the server. Similarly, once the server has averaged all the updates, it must send them back to the client. This incurs huge bandwidth and resource costs on large networks of millions of devices. As the field of federated learning advances, a few optimizations have been developed to minimize this communication. To address the footprint of the model, researchers have developed model compression techniques.

The general principle is that reducing the portion of the model that the clients are training on the edge reduces the memory necessary for training and the size of communication to the server. In basic federated learning, the client trains the entire model.

Momentum aggregation is a technique that helps address the convergence problem. In federated learning, client data can be extremely heterogeneous depending on the different environments in which the devices are used. That means that many models with heterogeneous data may need help to converge. Each client stores a momentum term locally, which tracks the pace of change over several updates. With clients communicating this momentum, the server can factor in the rate of change of each update when changing the global model to accelerate convergence. Similarly, weighted aggregation can factor in the client performance or other parameters like device type or network connection strength to adjust the weight with which the server should incorporate the model updates.

These samples are crafted to have a specific impact on the model's behavior while blending in with the legitimate training data.

Malicious insiders, such as employees or data providers, can manipulate the data before it is used to train the model. Insider threats are particularly challenging to detect and prevent, as the attackers have legitimate access to the data and can carefully craft the poisoning strategy to evade detection. These are the key mechanisms of data poisoning in ML systems. Attackers often employ these mechanisms to make their attacks more effective and harder to detect. The risk of data poisoning attacks grows as ML systems become increasingly complex and rely on larger datasets from diverse sources. Defending against data poisoning requires a multifaceted approach. ML practitioners and system designers must be aware of the various mechanisms of data poisoning and adopt a comprehensive approach to data security and model resilience. This includes secure data collection, robust data validation, and continuous model performance monitoring. Implementing secure data collection and preprocessing practices is crucial to prevent data poisoning at the source. Data validation and anomaly detection techniques can also help identify and mitigate potential poisoning attempts.

Unrepresentative training data can lead to biased or skewed models that perform poorly on real-world data. Suppose the training data needs to capture the variability and diversity of the real-world data adequately. In that case, the model may learn patterns specific to the training set but needs to generalize better to new, unseen data. This can result in poor performance, biased predictions, and limited model applicability. For instance, if a facial recognition model is trained primarily on images of individuals from a specific demographic group, it may struggle to accurately recognize faces from other demographic groups when deployed in a real-world setting.

Source: [Evidently AI](https://www.evidentlyai.com/ml-in-production/concept-drift)](./images/png/drift_over_time.png){#fig-drift-over-time} - Distribution shift can manifest in various forms, such as: **Covariate shift:** The distribution of the input features (covariates) changes while the conditional distribution of the target variable given the input remains the same. Covariate shift matters because it can impact the model's ability to make accurate predictions when the input features (covariates) differ between the training and test data. Even if the relationship between the input features and the target variable remains the same, a change in the distribution of the input features can affect the model's performance. For example, consider a model trained to predict housing prices based on features like square footage, number of bedrooms, and location. Suppose the distribution of these features in the test data significantly differs from the training data (e.g., the test data contains houses with much larger square footage). In that case, the model's predictions may become less accurate. Addressing covariate shifts is important to ensure the model's robustness and reliability when applied to new data. **Concept drift:** The relationship between the input features and the target variable changes over time, altering the underlying concept the model is trying to learn, as shown in [@fig-drift-over-time]. Concept drift is important because it indicates changes in the fundamental relationship between the input features and the target variable over time. When the underlying concept that the model is trying to learn shifts, its performance can deteriorate if not adapted to the new concept. For instance, in a customer churn prediction model, the factors influencing customer churn may evolve due to market conditions, competitor offerings, or customer preferences. If the model is not updated to capture these changes, its predictions may become less accurate and irrelevant.

Domain generalization techniques aim to learn domain-invariant features or models that can generalize well to new domains. For example, consider a model trained to classify images of animals. If the model can learn features invariant to different backgrounds, lighting conditions, or poses, it can generalize well to classify animals in new, unseen environments.
