PaddlePaddle/PaddleSlim
A deep learning model compression library from the PaddlePaddle ecosystem offering quantization, knowledge distillation, pruning, and architecture search.

PaddleSlim provides model compression strategies including low-bit quantization, knowledge distillation, sparsification, and neural architecture search (NAS) to reduce model size and improve inference speed. It integrates with popular model architectures like YOLO object detectors, BERT, ERNIE, and vision transformers, and supports deployment optimization with TensorRT. The library enables developers to automatically compress models for efficient deployment across various hardware platforms.
