It uses the activation magnitudes to prune the embedding hidden size; mlp ffn hidden size; transformer attention heads; mamba heads and head dimension; MoE number of experts, ffn hidden size, and shared expert intermediate size; and number of layers of the model.

+## GptOss
+
+With this release Puzzle algorithm supports only experts removal for `Gpt-Oss`.
+
+This model comes as a quantized checkpoint i.e. MoE experts matrices are quantized with _MXFP4_ format.
+In the pruning steps puzzle utilizes decompressed model (back to BF16) for statistics and scores computation.
+This means, during the conversion to puzzle format we decompress the model and store it as a BF16.
+Once the pruning is done i.e. experts to be removed are identified and the process is finished, user may want to get back the _MXFP4_ format of the checkpoint.
+To do so, there is an additional script, that takes the original and the pruned checkpoint and outputs pruned checkpoint in _MXFP4_ format.
