arXiv:2607. 26247v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) fine-tunes large pretrained models at a fraction of the cost of full fine-tuning, but its performance depends strongly on how the adapters are initialized.

arXiv:2607. 19391v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Low-Rank Adaptation is widely used for parameter-efficient fine-tuning, yet existing methods typically assign the same adapter rank to every transformer layer despite their heterogeneous adaptation requirements.

arXiv:2606. 12883v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA), the scaling factor $\alpha$ is often treated as a mere complement to the learning rate, yet its role in optimization remains poorly understood.

arXiv:2606. 29184v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) enables highly efficient fine-tuning by constraining task-specific updates to fixed low-rank subspaces, this rigid design limits representational flexibility and often results in overconfident predictions and miscalibrated uncertainty, especially in low-data regimes.

arXiv:2606. 31813v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) and its variants enable parameter-efficient fine-tuning of large language models under the supervised fine-tuning (SFT) paradigm.
By Ruijia Zhang, Jiacheng Zhu, Hanqing Zhu, Laixi Shi
In Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA), the scaling factor $α$ is often treated as a mere complement to the learning rate, yet its role in optimization remains poorly understood. In this paper, we reveal that the scaling factor $α$ and the learning rate function differently, with $α$ emerging as the dominant driver of effective optimization, delivering gains that cannot be replicated by learning rate scaling alone.

arXiv:2607. 17620v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) makes finetuning large language models cheaper by adding to each weight matrix a trainable low-rank update parameterized as the product of two matrices.
