Third-party acknowledgements

This repository is an independent research implementation. It does not wholesale-vendor the projects below, but its design and intended experiments build on their work. The BTX writer is the disclosed derived exception.

  • Robert J. Aumann and Lloyd S. Shapley for the Aumann-Shapley value.
  • Joshua Hill and NVIDIA Model Optimizer PR #2183 for Aumann-Shapley quantization sensitivity and the associated coverage/additivity analysis.
  • Albert Tseng, Qingyao Sun, David Hou, Christopher De Sa, and the QTIP/QuIP# authors for trellis quantization and incoherence-processing foundations.
  • turboderp and ExLlamaV3 contributors for EXL3/Trellis quantization and its encoder/runtime ecosystem.
  • The Qwen Team for Qwen3 and Qwen/Qwen3-30B-A3B-Base (Apache-2.0).
  • Z.ai for GLM-5.2, the source model in the preserved prior-control lineage.
  • malaiwah for the GLM-5.2 MTP-78 overlay and calibration capture, and Josh Cartu for the associated MTP-78 recipe and rank-sliced runtime work. These credits identify the named predecessor's provenance; the Qwen experiment does not incorporate the MTP-78 runtime or draft layer.
  • The MC-MoE, HIGGS, PQI, GuidedQuant, MoEQuant, EAC-MoE, and VSRAQ authors for the mixed-precision, end-loss, router-aware, and route-shift research identified precisely in docs/REFERENCES.md.
  • Luke Alonso and Local Inference Lab contributors for B12X, the vLLM fork, and local runtime research. The official BTX writer ports atom assembly from B12X btx_synth.py at the pinned commit; that module is marked Apache-2.0 and the complete upstream license is preserved in THIRD_PARTY_LICENSES/B12X-APACHE-2.0.txt.
  • NVIDIA Model Optimizer, vLLM, Hugging Face Transformers, safetensors, and huggingface_hub contributors.
  • Google DeepMind for Gemma 4, used as the planned portability model.

Any future vendored adapter must retain the upstream license and notice in the same commit that introduces the code.
