Structurally pruned from openbmb/MiniCPM-o-4_5 using Dystrio Sculpt. Only the Qwen3-8B LLM backbone is pruned — vision (SigLip2), audio (Whisper), and TTS (CosyVoice2) modules are untouched.

Metric	Baseline	This Model	Retention
Weighted Accuracy	0.6756	0.6377	94.4%
MMLU	0.6700	0.6700	100.0%

Compression Details

keep_frac: 0.95 (5% of MLP intermediate neurons removed)
Method: Structural pruning with live teacher distillation (alpha=0.5)
Repair: Full repair pass with workload-matched training data
Architecture: All multimodal modules preserved; only LLM MLP layers compressed

Intended Use

Drop-in replacement for MiniCPM-o 4.5 with reduced memory footprint. Suitable for:

LoRA fine-tuning on memory-constrained GPUs
File description and indexing workloads
Multimodal inference with lower VRAM requirements

How to Use
