Description

Model compression for Gaussian mixture is compelling for several reasons. First, expectation maximization is non convex, often requiring multiple random restarts; compressing a well converged model preserves its hard won optimum and avoids repeated runs. Second, compression without retraining is a major advantage, delivering smaller footprints and faster inference while keeping the learned distribution intact. Third, maintaining multiple storage and compute tiers of the same model—full, medium, and ultra-light—mirrors the ChatGPT-4 and 4-mini pattern: a unified capability surface scaled for latency and cost. This process enables adaptive deployment, edge compatibility, and efficient A/B testing without duplicating training pipelines and simplifies fleet management
