arXiv:2607. 28658v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated pre-training offers a way to train foundation models on private or distributed data without centralizing the underlying datasets.
arXiv:2608. 12108v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated learning (FL) enables collaborative model training across distributed clients while keeping data local.
arXiv:2608. 15639v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: \textit{Split Federated Learning} (SFL) enables distributed model training by splitting networks between the server and clients.
arXiv:2607. 20465v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The quality of training data fundamentally determines the capabilities of large language models (LLMs), yet no unified benchmark exists to measure how well LLMs, agents, and data-centric workflows actually prepare training data end to end.
arXiv:2606. 09396v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) is an efficient approach for downstream task adaptation and often serves as the initialization stage for reinforcement learning (RL), but it can show weaker generalization than RL.
arXiv:2606. 12117v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Benchmark scores often misrepresent a large language model's (LLM's) knowledge, because they rely, e.
arXiv:2607. 29071v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated learning of foundation models faces a fundamental resource-asymmetry challenge: the institutions holding the most valuable domain-specific data cannot host billion-parameter models.
arXiv:2502. 08829v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Federated learning (FL) with non-IID data often degrades client performance below local training baselines.
arXiv:2607. 04733v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) is the standard approach for adapting pretrained language models to downstream domains, yet it often improves target-domain behavior at the cost of degrading pre-existing capabilities.
arXiv:2606. 15625v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The continuous scaling of large language models (LLMs) incurs prohibitive computational costs, making Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) a scalable alternative for efficient fine-tuning via sparse activation.
arXiv:2605. 12705v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: How can we train models whose post-trained capabilities survive subsequent fine-tuning?
arXiv:2606. 15963v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated fine-tuning of large language models using parameter-efficient methods such as LoRA enables privacy-preserving adaptation of foundation models.
arXiv:2603. 26556v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Converting a pretrained Transformer into a more efficient hybrid model through distillation offers a promising approach to reducing inference costs.
