Parameter-efficient fine-tuning still leaves a broad space of behavior-changing updates reachable, so a poisoned objective can be represented and optimized. We study an alternative: adaptation constrained to the subspace estimated from a trusted pool of existing task adapters.
arXiv:2607. 23711v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LoRA fine-tuning can create intruder dimensions: new leading singular vectors of the updated weight matrix $W+BA$ that are nearly orthogonal to all pretrained singular vectors and that drive catastrophic forgetting.
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.
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. We identify the data-parameter interference as a geometric source of this instability.
arXiv:2602. 03846v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We develop a continual learning method for pretrained models that \emph{requires no access to old-task data}, addressing a practical barrier in foundation model adaptation where pretraining distributions are often unavailable.
arXiv:2606. 31092v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Full fine-tuning adapts large language models to new tasks but can erode capabilities they already possess.
