Model Pruning
A model compression technique that reduces model size by removing near-zero parameters from weight matrices or eliminating entire attention heads. It is divided into unstructured pruning and structured pruning; structured pruning is more amenable to practical hardware acceleration.

A 92% pruning rate means a substantial reduction in model storage requirements and inference computation, which is particularly important for edge devices and real-time application scenarios.
Model training is mostly completed in the cloud, and when deployed to the edge it often must undergo compression processing such as quantization and pruning, while also requiring version management and rollback mechanisms to be established to avoid a single model update causing production line anomalies.
Combining pruning and quantization can compress a large model that originally required tens of GB of VRAM down to a few GB or even a few hundred MB, enabling it to run on edge devices.
Commonly used techniques for compressing deep learning models include knowledge distillation, model pruning, and quantization.
Uniformly pruning layers disproportionately damages non-Latin language output capability, and multilingual-oriented compression should preserve more capacity near the final layers.
Excessively reducing model depth may sacrifice the output quality of non-Latin languages, which is a signal that model compression requires trade-off consideration.
Model pruning can remove redundant parameters to reduce VRAM usage and computational load.
Common technical approaches to model lightweighting include knowledge distillation, model pruning, quantization, and neural architecture search (NAS)
