kompress-v2-base
Extractive prompt compressor for LLM proxies. Predicts a keep/drop label per token; the surviving tokens form a compressed version of the input that preserves meaning while reducing token count. It has no decoder: the output is always a subsequence of the input, in the original order.
Based on ModernBERT-base (150M params) with a LoRA adapter (4.4M trainable params, 2.9%) plus a custom dual head (token classifier + 1-D span conv). Trained on 126,617 accepted Pipeline A+B labels (compressor + faithfulness judge) across 17 sources: narrative, dialog, code, agent traces, healthcare, finance, government, scientific, web, summary, and tool-calling.
Distribution. Public. Apache 2.0, free for commercial use.
Use with Headroom (recommended)
Headroom's proxy loads onnx/kompress-int8-wo.onnx from this repo and runs it
on CPU with ONNX Runtime; no torch needed. Point it at this repo:
from headroom.transforms.kompress_compressor import KompressCompressor, KompressConfig
compressor = KompressCompressor(KompressConfig(model_id="chopratejas/kompress-v2-base"))
result = compressor.compress(long_tool_output)
print(result.compressed, result.compression_ratio)
Or serve it as an endpoint from this repository's modal_jobs/modal_serve.py
with KOMPRESS_MODEL_ID=chopratejas/kompress-v2-base set at deploy time.
Use directly (PyTorch)
import torch
from transformers import AutoModel, AutoTokenizer
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
ckpt = torch.load(hf_hub_download("chopratejas/kompress-v2-base", "merged.pt"), map_location="cpu", weights_only=False)
encoder = AutoModel.from_pretrained("answerdotai/ModernBERT-base", attn_implementation="eager")
encoder.load_state_dict({k: v.float() for k, v in ckpt["encoder_state_dict"].items()})
H = encoder.config.hidden_size
token_head = torch.nn.Linear(H, 2)
span_conv = torch.nn.Sequential(torch.nn.Conv1d(H, 256, 5, padding=2), torch.nn.GELU(),
torch.nn.Conv1d(256, 1, 3, padding=1))
token_head.load_state_dict(ckpt["token_head_state_dict"])
span_conv.load_state_dict(ckpt["span_conv_state_dict"])
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("chopratejas/kompress-v2-base")
enc = tok("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.", return_tensors="pt")
with torch.no_grad():
h = encoder(**enc).last_hidden_state
p_keep = torch.softmax(token_head(h), -1)[..., 1]
span = torch.sigmoid(span_conv(h.transpose(1, 2)).squeeze(1))
scores = p_keep * (0.5 + 0.5 * span) # final_scores in [0, 1]
kept = enc["input_ids"][0][scores[0] >= 0.5]
print(tok.decode(kept, skip_special_tokens=True))
model.safetensors is the HF Trainer checkpoint of HeadroomCompressorV2
(PEFT-wrapped encoder + LoRA + heads) and loads through the kompress package;
merged.pt is the same model with LoRA folded into the encoder and is what the
ONNX exports were traced from.
Threshold tuning
The model emits final_scores ∈ [0, 1] per subword. Raise the threshold
to compress harder; lower it to protect must-keep recall.
| Threshold | keep_rate | must_keep_recall | F1 | precision | recall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.30 | 0.946 (5% drop) | 0.997 | 0.942 | 0.920 | 0.964 |
| 0.40 | 0.910 (9% drop) | 0.994 | 0.933 | 0.929 | 0.937 |
| 0.50 (default) | 0.866 (13% drop) | 0.989 | 0.920 | 0.940 | 0.901 |
| 0.60 | 0.818 (18% drop) | 0.980 | 0.902 | 0.949 | 0.860 |
| 0.70 | 0.752 (25% drop) | 0.953 | 0.870 | 0.958 | 0.798 |
Measured on the held-out test split (n=12,697 rows, 16,827,490 scored subwords), checkpoint best, PyTorch bf16 on H100.
Test split. dataset_v2_v2.1-f00 test: split by source document, exact and near duplicates of training rows removed. An earlier version of this card reported metrics on the v2.0 split, where 12.2% of test rows were byte-identical to training rows; those numbers were optimistic by roughly 0.02 F1 and have been replaced.
At the default threshold (0.5): F1 0.920, must-keep recall 0.989, keep rate 0.866 (13% of subwords removed).
On the subset the labeller actually compressed (it dropped at least 5% of the words, 6,559,681 subwords), at 0.5: F1 0.893, must-keep recall 0.986, keep rate 0.853. The rest of the split is text where almost every word should be kept, which inflates F1 for any model.
Training data
- 126,617 labeled examples after
min_drop_ratio=0.05filtering and same-conversation packing (from 367,525 accepted labels). - Sources: arxiv, pubmed-scientific, govreport, swe-smith, swe-gym-openhands, toolmind, xlam-fc, fineweb-edu, cnn-dailymail, xsum, glaive-fc, lmsys-chat, claude-code-sessions, meetingbank, the-stack-smol-md, samsum, swe-bench-verified.
- Labeler: DeepSeek-V4-Flash (compressor) + DeepSeek-V4-Pro (judge) with Pipeline A + B faithfulness loop. Hard-keep overlay enforces names, dates, numbers, URLs, code identifiers via GLiNER + regex + lexicons.
- Bucket split: short=48%, mid=31%, long=21% (max_length 8,192 native ModernBERT context).
- Split: train=126,617 / val=7,037 / test=7,037.

Validation curve (n=7,037, threshold=0.5)
| step | epoch | eval_loss | F1 | must_keep_recall | keep_rate | precision |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2000 | 0.76 | 0.347 | 0.905 | 0.9849 | 0.867 | 0.868 |
| 4000 ← selected (best must_keep_recall) | 1.52 | 0.342 | 0.905 | 0.9909 | 0.900 | 0.852 |
| 6000 | 2.27 | 0.338 | 0.907 | 0.9865 | 0.881 | 0.863 |
The shipped weights are the checkpoint with the best validation must-keep recall (metric_for_best_model), evaluated every 2,000 steps.
ONNX (what Headroom loads)
| artifact | size | notes |
|---|---|---|
onnx/kompress-int8-wo.onnx |
274 MB | weight-only int8 (MatMulNBits), the default artifact; needs onnxruntime>=1.24 |
onnx/kompress-fp32.onnx |
601 MB | lossless reference |
Weight-only int8 agrees with fp32 on 99.6% of keep decisions. Headroom tries
int8-wo first and falls back to fp32 on runtimes without the 8-bit kernel.
