FedPA-LoRA: Product-Aligned Framework for Mitigating Aggregation and Initialization Errors in Heterogeneous Federated LoRA

arXiv:2608. 15381v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) enables efficient federated fine-tuning of large language models, but its factorized parameterization creates a tension between accurate aggregation of local updates and continuity of locally optimized factors.

Dysco: Dynamic Subspace Boosting to Mitigate LoRA Interference in Federated Learning

arXiv:2607. 14367v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated fine-tuning of large pre-trained models increasingly relies on Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) to reduce communication and computation, but heterogeneous clients can make adapter aggregation unstable.

LORA-CRAFT: Cross-layer Rank Adaptation via Frozen Tucker Decomposition of Pre-trained Attention Weights

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.
