[WACV 2025 (Oral)] PTQ4VM: Post-training Quantization for Visual Mamba

This is official code for the paper PTQ4VM.

PTQ4VM can be applied to various Visual Mamba backbones, converting the pretrained model to a quantized format in under 15 minutes without notable quality degradation.

Install

1. Setting conda

conda create -n ptq4vm python=3.10 -y
conda activate ptq4vm

2. Clone the PTQ4VM repository

git clone https://github.com/YoungHyun197/ptq4vm
cd ptq4vm

3. Install the dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install causal-conv1d==1.1.1
pip install mamba-ssm==1.2.0.post1

4. Replace core implementation of Mamba

cp -rf mamba-1p1p1/mamba_ssm /opt/conda/lib/python3.10/site-packages

5. Install the CUDA kernel

python ./cuda_measure/setup_vim_GEMM.py install

How to use PTQ4VM

Here we use Vision Mamba (Vim) model as an example. Before applying ptq4vm, prepare a pre-trained model. You can download the model from this url.

Generate activation smoothing scale

torchrun --nproc_per_node 1 generate_act_scale.py --resume [model-path] --model vim_tiny_patch16_224_bimambav2_final_pool_mean_abs_pos_embed_with_midclstok_div2 --data-path [imagenet path] --batch-size 256

Joint Learning of Smoothing Scale and Step size (JLSS)

torchrun --nproc_per_node 1 quant.py --eval --resume [model-path] --model vim_tiny_patch16_224_bimambav2_final_pool_mean_abs_pos_embed_with_midclstok_div2 --data-path [imagenet-path] --act_scales [smoothing-path] --batch-size 256 --qmode ptq4vm --train-batch 256 --n-lva 16 --n-lvw 16 --alpha 0.5 --epochs 100 --lr-a 5e-4 --lr-w 5e-4 --lr-s 1e-2

Speedup using CUDA kernel

1. Check the layer-wise acceleration

python cuda_sandbox.py

2. Check the end-to-end acceleration

torchrun --nproc_per_node 1 quant.py --eval --time_compare --resume [model-path] --model vim_tiny_patch16_224_bimambav2_final_pool_mean_abs_pos_embed_with_midclstok_div2 --data-path [imagenet-path] --act_scales [smoothing-path] --batch-size 256 --qmode ptq4vm --train-batch 256 --n-lva 16 --n-lvw 16 --alpha 0.5 --epochs 100 --lr-a 5e-4 --lr-w 5e-4 --lr-s 1e-2
