What Breaks and What Comes BackCapability Damage and Recovery in Depth-Pruned Small Language Models

Piyush Dhoka · Vedant Pandhare · Varun Inamdar · Aadarsh Pathre · Pavitha Nooji

A study of how removing Transformer layers affects six capabilities across four small language model families, and how fine-tuning restores them. We compare recovery strategies while accounting for the training tokens spent planning them.

The takeaway

Once pilot training costs are included, uniform healing matches or outperforms the planned variants across all four model families.
