arXiv:2505. 24037v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Sparse large language models (LLMs) offer an attractive direction toward efficient deployment, but adapting them to downstream tasks remains challenging.
arXiv:2506. 11042v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) has emerged as a resource-efficient strategy for adapting Pretrained Foundation Models (PFMs) by learning a small number of task-specific updates $\Delta W$.
arXiv:2606. 05516v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Zeroth-order (ZO) optimization enables memory-efficient fine-tuning of large language models (LLMs) using only forward passes, but it remains unclear how useful adaptation is distributed across layers.
arXiv:2607. 11940v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As the scale of large pre-trained models continues to grow, fine-tuning them under limited memory budgets has become increasingly challenging.
arXiv:2502. 11034v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Loss spikes remain a persistent obstacle in large-scale language model pretraining.
arXiv:2608. 14621v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-term memory is increasingly central to LLM agents, yet memory design remains a highly coupled architecture problem: what to encode, how to store it, how to retrieve it, and how to manage it can vary substantially across tasks and backbone models.
arXiv:2608. 15360v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) has substantially reduced the hardware cost of adapting Large Language Models (LLMs) by decreasing the number of trainable parameters, recent studies have sought to further improve PEFT through parameter sharing.
arXiv:2601. 13020v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Continual instruction tuning (CIT) requires multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to adapt to a stream of tasks without forgetting prior capabilities.
