  # ik_llama.cpp: Advanced llama.cpp fork for SOTA Quantization, Bitnet, and MoE on CPU/Hybrid Systems
  
  This repository is an enhanced fork of `ggerganov/llama.cpp` focused on delivering cutting-edge performance and features for local LLM inference. It introduces new state-of-the-art quantization types, first-class Bitnet support, improved DeepSeek performance via MLA/FlashMLA, and fused MoE operations, specifically optimized for CPU and hybrid GPU/CPU environments.
