Instruction selection is a stage in the compiler backend that converts middle-level intermediate representation (IR) into a low-level IR. It occurs before instruction scheduling and register allocation, and the output IR closely resembles the target machine code or assembly language. Peephole optimization can still be applied to the output IR.
