Pretraining and alignment induce asymmetric geometric traces in transformer weights because alignment updates concentrate in read pathways due to activation covariance while write pathways inherit less structure from alignment losses.
SVD-Surgeon brings Optimal Brain Surgeon to the singular-value basis for improved training-free compression of large language models.
LASER introduces curvature-weighted SVD from second-order loss approximation and loss-aware rank allocation to compress VLMs, reporting over 2.3x decoding speedup under low-precision settings.
DREAM-S combines neural architecture search, target-aware supernet training, and attention-entropy-guided distillation to accelerate speculative decoding in VLMs, reporting up to 3.85x speedup over standard methods.
PARSE trains a prompt-aware linear router on dense-model outputs to select dynamic SVD ranks, improving accuracy up to 10% at 0.6 compression ratio on LLaMA-7B while delivering 2.5x prefill and 2.4x decode speedups.
FlashSVD v1.5 delivers up to 2.55x faster autoregressive decode and 2.39x end-to-end speedup for SVD-compressed transformers by reorganizing execution paths with dense-KV decode, packed MLP kernels, and per-layer CUDA graphs.
JACTUS unifies low-rank compression and task adaptation via a task-aware union of subspaces and global rank allocation by marginal gain, outperforming 100% PEFT methods like DoRA on ViT-Base (89.2% avg) and Llama2-7B (80.9% avg) at 80% retained parameters.
eOptShrinkQ compresses KV caches to ~2.2 bits per entry via optimal spectral shrinkage and quantization, outperforming prior methods on LongBench while matching FP16 on multi-needle retrieval.
A3 splits Transformer layers into QK, OV, and MLP components and derives analytical low-rank approximations that reduce hidden dimensions while minimizing each component's functional loss, yielding better perplexity than prior low-rank methods on LLaMA models.
AIR augments activation-aware SVD compression of LLMs with an influence metric and a closed-form ALS update, claiming >18% perplexity improvement at 60% parameter retention and 90% less calibration data than SVD-LLM(W).
A slice-wise feature distillation framework for independent tensorization of neural network slices to achieve scalable compression with reduced fine-tuning costs.
WSVD delivers over 1.8x faster VLM decoding via weighted low-rank approximation at fine granularity plus quantization, without accuracy loss.
NeuronMLP applies SVD-based compression and Trainium-specific tiling and caching to MLP layers, delivering 1.35x kernel speedup and 1.21x end-to-end inference speedup at 0.05 compression ratio versus AWS NKI baseline.
