Title:IrekoGPT: Turning Structured Pruning into Post-Hoc Slimmable LLMs
Abstract:We introduce IrekoGPT, a post-hoc method for converting pretrained LLMs into slimmable models whose width can be adjusted at inference time. Building on SliceGPT, we retain its projection matrices without pruning them, allowing a single model to expose nested subnetworks at different widths. We improve robustness by calibrating each layer across multiple compression ratios, and correct downstream linear layers through gradient-free ridge regression. Across Llama and Qwen models, preliminary results show improvements over naive PCA-based slimming, with the largest gains at high compression. Code is available at this https URL
