Task-Driven Subspace Decomposition for Knowledge Sharing and Isolation in LoRA-based Continual Learning

The paper introduces LoDA, a LoRA-based continual learning method that decomposes update spaces into task‑shared and truly task‑specific subspaces using energy‑based objectives. By fixing down‑projections and learning up‑projections with Gradient‑Aligned Optimization, LoDA recalibrates general updates in closed form after each task, aiming to improve knowledge sharing and isolation. Experiments show that LoDA outperforms existing CL methods.

Learning to Recover Task Experts from a Multi-Task Merged Model

Multi-task model merging aims to consolidate several task-specific experts into a unified model, yet static merging consistently suffers from parameter interference. While dynamic merging models aim to bridge this gap, many works rely on the costly storage and loading of redundant expert components at inference.
