LLM Micro Optimizer
This tool fine-tunes LLMs specifically for microcontroller deployment by pruning redundant weights, compressing embeddings, and applying distillation techniques. It ensures the model remains performant while reducing size and complexity.
What It Does
- Supports optimization levels:
lowandhigh. - Optional distillation using a dataset.
- Saves the optimized model to a specified path.
Installation
Install the required dependencies using pip:
pip install torch transformers scipyUsage
Run the tool from the command line:
python llm_micro_optimizer.py --model_path <path_to_model> \
--optimization_level <low|high> \
--save_path <path_to_save_model> \
[--distillation_dataset <path_to_dataset>]Arguments
--model_path: Path to the PyTorch model file to optimize.--optimization_level: Optimization level (loworhigh).--save_path: Path to save the optimized model.--distillation_dataset: (Optional) Path to the dataset for distillation.
