Torch-Pruning is an open-source toolkit designed to optimize deep neural networks by performing structural pruning directly within PyTorch models. The library focuses on reducing the size and computational cost of neural networks by removing redundant parameters and channels while maintaining model performance. It introduces a graph-based algorithm called DepGraph that automatically identifies dependencies between layers, allowing parameters to be pruned safely across complex architectures. ...

...LLM-Pruner addresses this issue by identifying and removing non-essential components within transformer architectures, such as redundant attention heads or feed-forward structures. The framework relies on gradient-based analysis to determine which parameters contribute least to model performance, enabling targeted structural pruning rather than simple weight removal. After pruning, the framework applies lightweight fine-tuning methods such as LoRA to recover performance using relatively small datasets and short training times.
