In the vLLM documentation quoted above, TurboQuant (which is a restricted version of EDEN) is referred to as a specific case of HIGGS. Note the symmetry: EDEN acts as a special case of HIGGS; hence, HIGGS functions as a generalization of EDEN.

In any case, the quantizer is indeed an extension, regardless of whether it was explicitly framed that way in the paper. I say this not to diminish their contribution at all, but just to clarify the relationship, as it was also stated in the vLLM doc.
