以模型为中心的方法

模型压缩

SparseGPT： Massive Language models can be accurate pruned in one-shot

大规模语言模型可以在一次操作中精确剪枝

「方法简述：」论文首次展示了一种名为SparseGPT的新方法，可以在一次操作中将大规模语言模型剪枝到至少50%的稀疏度，而无需重新训练，同时保持较小的精度损失。这种方法可以在不到4.5小时内在最大的开源模型OPT-175B和BLOOM-176B上执行，并且可以达到60%的非结构化稀疏度，同时困惑度几乎没有增加。SparseGPT可以应用于半结构化模式，并与权重量化方法兼容。

OPTQ： Accurate Quantization for Generative Pre-trained Transformers

生成式预训练 Transformer 的精确量化

「方法简述：」论文提出了一种名为OPTQ的新方法，可以在一个GPU上对大型语言模型进行高效的压缩。该方法基于近似二阶信息进行一次性权重量化，可以将1750亿个参数的GPT模型压缩到每个权重只有3或4位，同时保持了较高的精度。相对于先前的方法，该压缩方法可以提高2倍以上的压缩增益，并且可以在高端和成本效益更高的GPU上实现端到端推理速度的提高。

Towards the Law of Capacity Gap in Distilling Language Models

迈向蒸馏语言模型能力差距的规律

「方法简述：」Language model distillation是一种将大型教师模型的知识蒸馏到小型学生模型的方法。但是，当教师和学生模型之间的容量差距较大时，这种方法很困难。这是因为较大的教师模型并不总是能产生比从较小的教师模型蒸馏出来的更好的学生模型。本文发现，在不同的学生规模和架构中，最佳的容量差距几乎是一致的，这被称为容量差距定律。该定律指导我们从7B教师模型蒸馏出一个3B的学生模型（MiniMA），并在基准测试中表现出色。
