v3.0: audit dataset, rebuild and calibration evidence, and the quantcheck screen
Data, scripts and analysis behind the revised paper Broken on Arrival: Non-Functional Quantized LLM Artifacts in Public Model Registries and How to Catch Them (arXiv:2609.05881, version 2).
What changed from v1
- The v1 defect diagnosis is corrected. The five official Ollama tags that v1 reported as defective conversions are exact, uncalibrated llama.cpp quantizations, tensor-identical to rebuilds from the original checkpoints. They are still non-functional, and adding an importance matrix rescues most of them.
- Every reported score is a serial re-score (one EvalPlus evaluation at a time); see
rerun-2026-10/serial/.
