🤗 Optimum Intel is the interface between the 🤗 Transformers library and the different tools and libraries provided by Intel to accelerate end-to-end pipelines on Intel architectures.
Intel Neural Compressor is an open-source library enabling the usage of the most popular compression techniques such as quantization, pruning and knowledge distillation. It supports automatic accuracy-driven tuning strategies in order for users to easily generate quantized model. The users can easily apply static, dynamic and aware-training quantization approaches while giving an expected accuracy criteria. It also supports different weight pruning techniques enabling the creation of pruned model giving a predefined sparsity target.
