Synergized Data Efficiency and Compression (SEC) Optimization for Large Language Models

The rapid advancements in large language models (LLMs) have propelled natural language processing but pose significant challenges related to extensive data requirements, high computational demands and more training times. While current approaches have demonstrated powerful capabilities, they often fall short of achieving an optimal balance between model size reduction and performance preservation, limiting their practicality in resource-constrained settings. We propose Synergized Efficiency and Compression (SEC) for Large Language Models, a novel framework that integrates data utilization and model compression techniques to enhance the efficiency and scalability of LLMs without compromising performance. Inside our framework, Synergy Controller could balance data optimization and model compression automatically during the training. The SEC could reduce data requirements by 30%, compress model size by 67.6%, and improve inference speed by 50%, with minimal performance degradation. Our results demonstrate that SEC enables high-performing LLM deployment with reduced resource demands, offering a path forward toward more sustainable and energy-efficient AI models in diverse applications.
