+This script will provide you with a short example of how to perform quantization aware training in TensorFlow using the
+TensorFlow Model Optimization Toolkit.
+
+The output from this example will be a TensorFlow Lite model file where weights and activations are quantized to 8bit
+integer values.
+
+Quantization helps reduce the size of your models and is necessary for running models on certain hardware such as Arm
+Ethos NPU.
+
+In quantization aware training (QAT), the error introduced with quantizing from fp32 to int8 is simulated using
+fake quantization nodes. By simulating this quantization error when training, the model can learn better adapted
+weights and minimize accuracy losses caused by the reduced precision.
+
+Minimum and maximum values for activations are also captured during training so activations for every layer can be
+quantized along with the weights later.
+
+Quantization is only simulated during training and the training backward passes are still performed in full float
+precision. Actual quantization happens when generating a TensorFlow Lite model.
+
+If you are targetting an Arm Ethos-U55 NPU then the output TensorFlow Lite file will also need to be passed through the Vela
+compiler for further optimizations before it can be used.
+
+For more information on using vela see: https://git.mlplatform.org/ml/ethos-u/ethos-u-vela.git/about/
+For more information on quantization aware training
