The paper introduces the "Compression Trinity," a unified framework that jointly applies sparsity, quantization, and low‑rank approximations to compress large language models. It presents several methods—MKOR, SLoPe, OPTIMA, PATCH, and SLiM—that leverage these three pillars to accelerate training, reduce memory bandwidth, and recover accuracy, achieving significant speedups and accuracy gains over existing techniques. The results demonstrate that combining all three compression strategies is essential for efficient, scalable, high‑performance LLM deployment.

OMP-MoE is a training‑free compression framework that prunes redundant experts in Mixture‑of‑Experts large language models by framing the problem as sparse signal reconstruction solved with Orthogonal Matching Pursuit. The method greedily selects expert contributions as dictionary atoms to minimize reconstruction error, then optimizes cross‑layer expert allocation via a water‑filling strategy, and finally introduces an adaptive inference mechanism (OMP‑MoE†) that dynamically adjusts expert activation based on energy prediction. Experiments on Qwen, DeepSeek‑V2, GPT‑OSS, and Mixtral MoE show consistent performance gains at 25‑50% pruning ratios, with Qwen3‑30B‑A3B retaining 93.3% of original performance at 50% compression while achieving significant speedups.

arXiv:2601. 16991v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Adapting large pre-trained language models to downstream tasks often entails fine-tuning millions of parameters or deploying costly dense weight updates, which hinders their use in resource-constrained environments.
