arXiv:2602. 02680v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The growing scale of deep neural networks, encompassing large language models (LLMs) and vision transformers (ViTs), has made training from scratch prohibitively expensive and deployment increasingly costly.
arXiv:2510. 00192v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Low-rank adaptation (LoRA) has become a widely used paradigm for parameter-efficient fine-tuning of large language models, yet its representational capacity often lags behind full fine-tuning.
arXiv:2606. 27866v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language models scale model ability with sparsely activated experts, making this architecture a standard recipe for modern large models.
arXiv:2510. 05544v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLM) and vision-language models (VLM) have achieved state-of-the-art performance, but they impose significant memory and computing challenges in deployment.
Vision-language models exhibit remarkable zero-shot capabilities but suffer significant performance degradation under distribution shifts. While test-time adaptation (TTA) via Low-Rank Adaptation offers a parameter-efficient solution, we identify a fundamental bottleneck in current methods: the reliance on static rank configurations.
arXiv:2606. 08156v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision Transformers (ViTs) achieve strong performance but suffer from high computational costs due to quadratic self-attention complexity.
arXiv:2603. 07523v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Transferring knowledge by fine-tuning large-scale pre-trained networks has become a standard paradigm for downstream tasks, yet the knowledge of a pre-trained model is tightly coupled with monolithic architecture, which restricts flexible reuse across models of varying scales.
arXiv:2604. 00757v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Vision Language Models show impressive performance across image and video understanding tasks, yet their computational cost grows rapidly with the number of visual tokens.
arXiv:2410. 13077v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Transformer-based Large Language Models (LLMs) traditionally rely on final-layer loss for finetuning and final-layer representations for predictions, potentially overlooking the predictive power embedded in late layers.
arXiv:2608. 13596v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Heterogeneous model fusion seeks to combine models that differ in tasks, initializations, architectures, or scales.
arXiv:2602. 12429v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Foundation models have achieved remarkable success, yet their growing parameter counts pose significant computational and memory challenges.

arXiv:2606. 16825v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures efficiently scale Large Language Models (LLMs) by activating only a small fraction of their experts per token, yet the full parameter count - dominated by the expert parameters - must be held in training and inference memory.
