arXiv:2608. 12332v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In recent years, low-rank adaptation (LoRA) has emerged as a significant paradigm that freezes pre-trained weights and introduces small, learnable adapters instead of fine-tuning the full set of parameters.

arXiv:2606. 16256v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Continual learning for pre-trained vision-language models requires balancing three competing objectives: retaining pre-trained knowledge, preserving knowledge from a sequence of learned tasks, and maintaining the plasticity to acquire new knowledge.

arXiv:2606. 00132v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While finetuning effectively adapts foundation models to specialized downstream tasks, it can degrade nontarget capabilities acquired during pretraining.

arXiv:2606. 24007v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Continual learning remains a major challenge for modern deep networks, partly because commonly used optimizers lack inherent mechanisms for continual adaptation.

arXiv:2606. 01873v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM-as-Aligner has emerged as a prevalent pre-training paradigm for Text-Attributed Graphs(TAGS), aligning graph and text modalities into a shared embedding space via CLIP-style contrastive learning.

arXiv:2607. 23837v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models generalize well to individual tasks but lack an inherent mechanism for learning them sequentially, leading to catastrophic forgetting.
