The passage around this formula

Formally, if a model is evaluated on T tasks with full-precision accuracy AcctFP\mathrm{Acc}_t^{FP} and quantized accuracy AcctQ\mathrm{Acc}_t^{Q} on task t , a benchmark table typically reports the mean regression Δˉ=1T∑t=1T(AcctFP−AcctQ)\bar{\Delta} = \frac{1}{T}\sum_{t=1}^{T}\left(\mathrm{Acc}_t^{FP} - \mathrm{Acc}_t^{Q}\right). while what governs whether any individual deployment is safe to ship is closer to the worst-case regression
