•

Distills large foundation models into compact, cost-effective student models while preserving performance and reasoning capabilities.

This skill guides developers and machine learning practitioners through model distillation, enabling them to compress large teacher models into smaller, high-speed student models without sacrificing task quality. It covers end-to-end best practices including representative data generation, chain-of-thought reasoning transfer, loss design balancing imitation and ground truth, output filtering, and rigorous evaluation workflows for deployment on resource-constrained hardware.
