UniRank: אלוקציה מאוחדת לדחיסת LLM

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2606.21847v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Low-rank decomposition is a promising compression paradigm for large language models (LLMs), yet its effectiveness hinges on rank budget allocation across weight matrices: uniform or hand-crafted rules ignore module-wise importance, while learning-based allocation incurs substantial training overhead. We formulate rank allocation as a global sorting-and-truncation pipeline that scores every singular component by combining local singular energy with global functional importance, estimated via layer-wise input--output cosine similarity on a tiny calibration set. We show, both geometrically and empirically, that high input--output cosine similarity implies low effective rank. We further propose rank-preserving fine-tuning (RPFT), which
