Post-training compression is essential for deploying large language models (LLMs) under tight resource constraints. Tensor decompositions have emerged as a promising direction, offering compact parameterizations well suited to Transformer weight structures.
Large language models (LLMs) are built from structured high-dimensional objects such as token representations, weights, adaptation updates, caches, and activations, whose multilinear structure is unde...
This survey reviews tensor methods applied to large language models, framing them through a seven‑stage lifecycle (tokenization, embeddings, pre‑training, adaptation, compression, inference, interpretability) and a component view (embeddings, attention, feed‑forward networks). It offers unified notation, theoretical foundations, and comparative analyses of tensorization strategies for Transformer components, while highlighting evaluation protocol differences and model scale effects. The paper also introduces a new metric, ρ_gap, to quantify the gap between theoretical memory savings and actual system‑level speedup, and connects tensor techniques to related efficiency and probabilistic methods.
