Beware of the Batch Size: Hyperparameter Bias in Evaluating LoRA

arXiv:2602. 09492v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) is a standard approach for fine-tuning large language models, yet its many variants report conflicting empirical gains, often on the same benchmarks.

Sparsity-Aware Low-Rank Representation for Efficient Fine-Tuning of Large Language Models

arXiv:2601. 16991v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Adapting large pre-trained language models to downstream tasks often entails fine-tuning millions of parameters or deploying costly dense weight updates, which hinders their use in resource-constrained environments.

Bayesian-LoRA: Probabilistic Low-Rank Adaptation of Large Language Models

arXiv:2601. 21003v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large Language Models usually put more emphasis on accuracy and therefore, will guess even when not certain about the prediction, which is especially severe when fine-tuned on small datasets due to the inherent tendency toward miscalibration.
