arXiv:2607. 02576v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) commonly adapts pretrained weights through low-rank updates, and recent methods further exploit the singular value decomposition (SVD) of the base weight for initialization or subspace selection.
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.
arXiv:2607. 04306v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Distilling a fine-tuned teacher into a LoRA-adapted student is a standard recipe for parameter-efficient compression, but output-level KD does not explicitly control which rank-$r$ weight subspace the adapter occupies.
arXiv:2607. 16252v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) is a widely used parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) method for large language models.
arXiv:2602. 17510v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce LoRA-CRAFT (\textbf{C}ross-layer \textbf{R}ank \textbf{A}daptation via \textbf{F}rozen \textbf{T}ucker), abbreviated CRAFT throughout, an extremely parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) method that applies Tucker tensor decomposition to pre-trained attention weight matrices stacked across transformer layers and trains only small square adaptation matrices on the resulting frozen Tucker factors.
arXiv:2608. 05136v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gradient descent on a factored model $W = UV^\top$ is implicitly biased toward low-rank solutions, while Adam, starting from the same small initialization, is not.
arXiv:2606. 07596v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fine-tuning often introduces spurious correlations alongside task knowledge, causing systematic failures on underrepresented groups.
arXiv:2607. 27680v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) has become the standard mechanism for fine-tuning large pretrained models, yet its statistical properties remain only partially understood.
arXiv:2608. 17366v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Merging finetuned models combines specialized capabilities without joint training or access to the original data.
arXiv:2606. 16454v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) enables efficient adaptation of large pre-trained models to downstream tasks by parameterizing weight updates with low-rank matrices.
Merging finetuned models combines specialized capabilities without joint training or access to the original data. Most methods operate by linear arithmetic in Euclidean weight space, which cannot carry the geometry of the update.
arXiv:2606. 03723v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) enables parameter-efficient specialization of foundation models, but the proliferation of task-specific adapters fragments capabilities across many adapters, complicating reuse and deployment.
arXiv:2606. 13867v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Muon is an increasingly widely used optimizer that replaces a gradient $G=USV^\top$ with its polar factor $UV^\top$, thereby flattening the singular spectrum.
