-Fixed-point quantization is to use lower bit, for example, 2 bit, 3 bit or 8 bit fixed-point to represent weights and activations, which usually are singe float point with 32 bit. The fixed-point representation has advantages in reducing memory bandwidth, lowering power consumption and computational resources as well as the model storage requirements.  It is especially import for the inference in embedded device deployment.

+We use this equivalent workflow in the training. In our desigin, there is a quantization transpiler to insert the quantization operator and the de-quantization operator in the Fluid `ProgramDesc`. Since the outputs of quantization and de-quantization operator are still in floating point, they are called faked quantization and de-quantization operator. And the training framework is called simulated quantization.
 
 #### Backward pass
 
-See the figure 3. The gradients are calculated by dequantized weights and activations. All inputs and outputs are float point with 32 bit. And in the weight updating process, the gradients will be added to the original weight, not the quantized or dequantized weights.

 ### How to calculate quantization scale
 
-There are two strategies to calculate quantization scale, we call them dynamic and static strategy. The dynamic strategy is to calculate the quantization scale value each iteration. The static strategy is to fix the quantization scale for different inputs.
