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. 10196v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) aims to adapt pretrained models with a small trainable parameter subset, however, most existing methods choose this subset from fixed architectural heuristics rather than using dynamic, task-aware criteria.

arXiv:2606. 09396v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) is an efficient approach for downstream task adaptation and often serves as the initialization stage for reinforcement learning (RL), but it can show weaker generalization than RL.

arXiv:2601. 22108v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Continued pretraining is optimized with fixed self-supervised tasks but selected by downstream performance, creating a coarse feedback loop in which practitioners evaluate checkpoints, change data mixtures or objectives, and restart runs, while individual updates remain blind to target capabilities.

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.
