Quantization has been widely adopted in LLM training and inference to reduce cost and improve efficiency. However, low-bit quantization of the attention module often introduces large errors at very low bit-widths, causing performance degradation. Existing methods mainly rely on smoothing techniques to handle outliers, while we propose a hybrid quantization design to better balance accuracy and efficiency. Specifically, we propose HyQuant, an efficient hybrid quantization framework for LLM attention. HyQuant quantizes most attention states into low-bit formats while retaining a small set of ver
