Small Data, Big Ideas: Compact Transformers for Everyone
Big AI often needs lots of data and giant computers, but that doesn't have to be the rule.
A new approach uses Compact models to learn from very little, so research isn't only for labs with deep pockets.
These models are built to be simple and small, they learn patterns in images without needing huge sets, and they often do better on small tasks than older image methods.
One version even reaches 98% accuracy on a common test while being far smaller than usual, which means real people can try it on their own machines.
The idea opens doors for people working with rare data or limited funds; experiments that once needed big servers are now possible at home.
Code and trained models are public, so others can copy and try, share and improve — that open code part matters.
This makes AI fairer and more useful, for hobbyists, students, and small teams who want to solve real problems with small data and less fuss
