A · Result summary
A scoped artifact result
This report ranks exact downloadable artifacts only within one comparison group: canonical model, nominal quantization label, comparison class, and applicable QuantBench contract.
B · Behavioral Fingerprint
Behavioral Fingerprint
A QuantBench result is not only a winner. It is a failure profile relative to native BF16.
| Diagnostic | Unsloth | ggml-org | What this exposes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mean KL ↓ | 0.038542 | 0.053964 | Total distributional movement from native BF16. |
| Top-1 flips ↓ | 5,699 | 6,437 | How often the artifact changes the reference winner. |
| HCDFR @ margin ≥ 1 ↓ | 0.770% | 1.141% | Flip rate where the BF16 top-token margin is at least 1. |
| HCDFR @ margin ≥ 2 ↓ | 0.185% | 0.354% | Flip rate where the BF16 top-token margin is at least 2. |
| HCDFR @ margin ≥ 4 ↓ | 0.066% | 0.167% | Flip rate where the BF16 top-token margin is at least 4. |
| Max flipped BF16 margin ↓ | 9.239 | 24.747 | Furthest into the reference-margin tail that a flip occurred. |
C · Decision-Risk Profile
Decision-Risk Profile
For every metric shown below, lower is better. Bar length is normalized per metric: compare artifacts within a row, never lengths across rows. This is not a composite score.
D · Release Geometry
Evidence geometry for this release
These values describe this report, not universal QuantBench constants.
Two complete independent captures were bitwise identical across 9,957,277,696 FP32 logits. Under this pinned execution contract, the observed reference noise floor was zero; this is not a universal CUDA determinism claim.
E · Artifact Ranking
Artifact ranking within this comparison group
Lower behavioral divergence from the pinned native BF16 reference under the applicable versioned RAMGPT QuantBench contract.
| Rank | Artifact | Mean KL ↓ | Top-1 flips ↓ | Artifact SHA-256 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | Unsloth | 0.038542 | 5,699 | f6f851777709…2195813a |
| #2 | ggml-org | 0.053964 | 6,437 | ab27b9bfa375…fed6b328 |

G · Provenance / Interpretation Boundary
Artifact winner ≠ algorithm winner
Unsloth explicitly records importance-matrix provenance while ggml-org does not expose equivalent recipe provenance. This result ranks downloadable artifacts, not controlled quantization algorithms.
H · Tensor / Tokenization Compatibility
Artifact forensics begins before KL
QuantBench validates the scored forward path and token stream before behavioral ranking. Exact whole-file metadata equality is preferred, but a documented scored-path or scored-tokenization equivalence gate may establish eligibility when non-scored packaging differs.
