## What Sparse Does

**Sparse compresses fine-tuned models and derivative datasets as deltas from their base versions.**

### 📦 Model Delta Compression

| Mode | Size (7B) | Quality | Use Case |
|------|-----------|---------|----------|
| **Lossless** | ~1.4 GB | 100% | When quality matters |
| **SVD (LoRA-equiv)** | ~50 MB | ~95-99% | When size matters |

**Reconstruction:** 4 seconds • **Works on ANY existing fine-tune**

**Use cases:**
- Compress your existing full fine-tunes (trained without LoRA)
- Share smaller files with collaborators
- Save disk space storing multiple fine-tunes
- Works with ANY training method: full fine-tune, RLHF, merges

### 📊 Dataset Delta Compression

| Metric | Value |
|--------|-------|
| **Savings** | 60-80% typical |
| **Use case** | Derivative datasets (translations, versions, augmentations) |

---

## Quick Start

```bash
pip install sparse-llm
```

### Compress a Fine-tune

```bash
# Lossless compression (~1.4GB for 7B model)
sparse compress meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf ./my-finetune -o ./my-delta

# OR: Lossy compression (~50MB, LoRA-equivalent quality)
sparse compress-lossy meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf ./my-finetune -o ./my-delta --rank 16
```

### Reconstruct from Delta

```bash
# From lossless delta
sparse reconstruct meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf ./my-delta -o ./reconstructed-model

# From lossy delta
sparse reconstruct-lossy meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf ./my-delta -o ./reconstructed-model
```

### Dataset Delta

```bash
# Compress derivative dataset
sparse dataset-compress squad squad_v2 -o ./squad_v2_delta

# Reconstruct
sparse dataset-reconstruct ./squad_v2_delta
```

---

## How It Works

```
Fine-tuned Model (14GB)  -  Base Model (14GB)  =  Delta
                                    ↓
                    Lossless: 1.4GB  |  SVD: 50MB
                                    ↓
                         Reconstruct: Base + Delta
```

**Two compression modes:**

| Mode | How It Works | Size | Quality |
|------|--------------|------|--------|
| **Lossless** | Sparse + INT8 encoding | ~10% of original | 100% |
| **SVD** | Low-rank approximation (like LoRA) | ~0.4% of original | ~95-99% |

---

## CLI Reference

```bash
# Lossless compression (100% quality)
sparse compress <base> <finetune> -o <output>

# Lossy compression (~50MB, LoRA-equivalent quality)
sparse compress-lossy <base> <finetune> -o <output> [--rank 16]
sparse reconstruct-lossy <base> <delta> [-o <output>]

# Dataset commands
sparse dataset-compress <base> <derivative> -o <output>
sparse dataset-reconstruct <delta_dir>
sparse dataset-estimate <base> <derivative>

# Info
sparse info <path>
```

## Python API

```python
from core import compress_delta, reconstruct_from_delta
from core import compress_delta_svd_full, reconstruct_from_svd_delta

# Lossless compression
manifest = compress_delta(
    base_model_id="meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf",
    finetune_model_id="./my-finetune",
    output_path="./my-delta"
)
print(f"Compression: {manifest.compression_ratio:.1f}x")  # ~10x

# Extract LoRA (lossy, LoRA-equivalent)
manifest = compress_delta_svd_full(
    base_model_id="meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf",
    finetune_model_id="./my-finetune",
    output_path="./my-svd-delta",
    rank=16  # Like LoRA rank
)
print(f"Compression: {manifest.compression_ratio:.1f}x")  # ~280x

# Reconstruct (lossless)
model = reconstruct_from_delta("meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf", "./my-delta")

# Reconstruct from extracted LoRA
model = reconstruct_from_svd_delta("meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf", "./my-lora-delta")
```

### Dataset API

```python
from core import compress_dataset_delta, reconstruct_from_dataset_delta

# Compress
manifest = compress_dataset_delta("squad", "squad_v2", "./squad_v2_delta")
print(f"Savings: {manifest['size_stats']['savings_pct']:.1f}%")

# Reconstruct
dataset = reconstruct_from_dataset_delta("./squad_v2_delta")
```

## Performance Optimizations

### 🚀 5-8x Faster Compression Pipeline (Enabled by Default!)

**All commands automatically benefit from these optimizations** - no code changes needed.

**Smart Auto-Detection:** For 30B+ models, automatically enables:
- Lazy loading (50-70% memory reduction)
- Parallel processing (3-4x speedup)

#### ✅ Automatic Optimizations

These run transparently in all `compress_delta()` calls:

| Optimization | Benefit | Impact |
|-------------|---------|--------|
| **Base Model Caching** | Avoid repeated loading | ~20s saved/compression |
| **Rust SIMD Delta** | Hardware-accelerated compute | 5-10x faster |
| **Smart Heuristics** | Layer-aware compression | 10-20% better ratios |
| **GPU Reconstruction** | CUDA-accelerated INT8 deltas | 2-3x faster (CUDA only) |
| **Lazy Loading** (30B+) | Memory-efficient streaming | 50-70% memory reduction |
| **Parallel Processing** (30B+) | Multi-core computation | 3-4x speedup |

#### 📦 Manual Utilities (Rarely Needed)

Available for specialized scenarios:

| Utility | Use Case | Benefit |
|---------|----------|---------|
| **MmapDeltaStorage** | Processing 1000s of deltas | 40% faster I/O |
| **DifferentialCompressor** | Model families (5+ versions) | 2-3x smaller storage |

**Additional Features:**
- **Zstd Compression**: ~2x smaller delta files
- **Streaming Reconstruction**: 1GB+/s throughput
- **SIMD/AVX2**: Native CPU vectorization (auto-enabled)

### Usage Examples

**1. Single Model (Most Common)**
```python
from core import compress_delta

# All optimizations automatic - just call it!
compress_delta("gpt2", "./my-finetune", "./delta")
```

**2. Multiple Models from Same Base**
```python
# Base model cached automatically (saves ~20s each)
for finetune in ["model1", "model2", "model3"]:
    compress_delta("gpt2", f"./{finetune}", f"./delta_{finetune}")
```

**3. Large Models (30B+)**
```python
# Auto-detects and uses lazy loading + parallel processing
compress_delta("meta-llama/Llama-2-70b-hf", "./finetune", "./delta")
# Output: Detected large model (70.0B) - using lazy loading
```

**4. Model Families (5+ versions)**
```python
from core import DifferentialCompressor
compressor = DifferentialCompressor("gpt2", "./family")

# Stores incremental deltas (2-3x smaller)
for i in range(1, 11):
    compressor.compress_to_family(f"v{i}", model_params)
# Result: 10 versions = 30GB → 10GB
```

**5. Production Service (100+ deltas/day)**
```python
from core import MmapDeltaStorage
storage = MmapDeltaStorage(Path("./cache"))

# Zero-copy loading (40% faster I/O)
storage.save_delta("model_123", delta)
delta = storage.load_delta("model_123")
```

**Performance Impact:**

| Scenario | Time | Memory | Storage |
|----------|------|--------|---------|
| **Single GPT-2** | ~60s → ~8-12s (5-8x) | Standard | Standard |
| **10x GPT-2 (same base)** | ~600s → ~100s (6x) | Standard | Standard |
| **Single Llama-70B** | OOM → ~300s | 50-70% lower | Standard |
| **5x Llama-7B family** | ~300s → ~50s | ~25GB (w/ diff) | 150GB → 10GB (w/ diff) |

**When to Use Manual Utilities:**

**Use MmapDeltaStorage if:**
- Processing 100+ delta files in batch
- Building a delta cache service
- Need low-latency zero-copy loading

**Use DifferentialCompressor if:**
- Versioning through 5+ related models (v1, v2, v3...)
- Training model families from same base
- Storage cost is critical (saves 2-3x storage)

## Why Sparse?

**Post-hoc compression for ANY fine-tune.** Unlike LoRA (which requires training differently), Sparse works on models you've *already* trained.

| | LoRA/PEFT | Sparse Lossless | Sparse Lossy |
|--|-----------|-----------------|------------|
| **When** | During training | After training | After training |
| **Size** | ~50 MB | ~1.4 GB | ~50 MB |
| **Quality** | ~95-99% | 100% | ~95-99% |
| **Works on existing models** | ❌ No | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes |

**Key insight:** Sparse `compress-lossy` gives you LoRA-sized files from models that weren't trained with LoRA.

## Requirements

- Python 3.9+
- PyTorch 2.0+
- transformers
- Rust (included in wheel, no setup needed)

## Auto-Caching & Fast Reconstruction _(If integrated directly into HuggingFace)_

**Note:** This feature is available in the codebase but requires HuggingFace Hub integration to be fully functional.

```python
from core.fast_reconstruct import DeltaCache, from_pretrained_with_delta

# Create cache (reconstructed models stored in ~/.cache/sparse)
cache = DeltaCache()

# Reconstruct and cache - only takes time once!
model_path = cache.get_or_reconstruct(
    base_model_id="meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf",
    delta_path="./my-delta",
    background=False  # Wait for completion
)

# Load model from cache
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_path)

# Or use drop-in replacement for from_pretrained
model = from_pretrained_with_delta(
    "./my-delta",
    base_model_id="meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf"
)

# Prefetch multiple deltas in background (10x faster workflow!)
cache.prefetch_deltas(
    base_model_id="meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf",
    delta_paths=["./delta1", "./delta2", "./delta3"]
)
```
