  # Model Card for LRC-4B-Base

10
  LRC-4B-Base is a Small Language Model (SLM) with approximately 4 billion parameters. It is the base pre-trained version, developed using the **Low-Rank Clone (LRC)** method, before any Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT). The LRC method is an efficient knowledge distillation technique designed to construct SLMs that aspire to behavioral equivalence with larger, more powerful teacher models. This model was distilled from **Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct**.

12
  The LRC approach trains a set of low-rank projection matrices that enable soft pruning by compressing teacher weights and an "activation clone" mechanism that aligns student activations (including FFN signals) with those of the teacher. LRC-4B-Base was trained on **18 billion tokens**, demonstrating significant training efficiency compared to models trained on trillions of tokens.
