LoRA, PEFT, instruction tuning and domain adaptation — adapting a pretrained model without paying to train one.
arXiv:2604. 26508v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deploying Vision-Language Models (VLMs) on edge devices remains challenging due to their substantial computational and memory demands, which exceed the capabilities of resource-constrained embedded platforms.
arXiv:2603. 02462v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A key challenge in developing unified neural solvers for combinatorial optimization (CO) is the efficient generalization of models from a given set of tasks to new tasks unseen during initial training.
arXiv:2504. 00035v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) enable powerful knowledge injection through approaches such as in-context learning and fine-tuning, but they also introduce new risks of unauthorized imitation of high-value creative works.
arXiv:2604. 08991v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reliable embodied interaction in indoor environments requires agents to precisely localize small everyday objects from visual observations.
arXiv:2608. 10513v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large vision-language models (LVLMs) remain vulnerable to jailbreak attacks that exploit visual inputs to bypass safety alignment inherited from their language backbones.
arXiv:2608. 10196v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Program evolution can measure whether a mutation helped, but it rarely controls how far the mutation moves in behavior space.
arXiv:2608. 10916v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autoformalisation (AF) systems map natural language reasoning steps into formal statements in a proof assistant such as Lean.
arXiv:2608. 10144v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We consider federated parameter efficient fine-tuning of large neural networks with low-rank adaptation (LoRA,~Hu et al.
arXiv:2608. 10595v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) induce protein degradation by recruiting a target protein to an E3 ubiquitin ligase, making degradation a joint outcome of the degrader molecule and its biological context.
arXiv:2608. 10008v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM recommenders for top-$K$ item suggestion regularly emit titles outside the target catalog.
arXiv:2608. 10657v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Leukemia cell image classification is challenged by real-world domain shifts from acquisition, staining, illumination, and site protocols, causing single-dataset models to generalize poorly in real clinical scenarios.
arXiv:2607. 19364v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Activation steering adds a residual-stream direction at inference time, providing lightweight behavioral control without fine-tuning.
Mobile GUI agents remain brittle when deployed to applications absent from source training. We study novel-app generalization under a limited target interaction budget and without target demonstrations.
Recent advances in model design and self-supervised audio representations have improved speech and audio understanding, yet infant-centered naturalistic recordings remain challenging due to limited labeled data, low signal-to-noise ratio, and cross-family domain shifts. We present a family-conditioned, multi-tier audio tagger that combines a LoRA-finetuned Whisper encoder with a lightweight, target-speaker-aware Transformer for long-context inference and framewise prediction across tiers.
In recent research on the Digital Twin-based Vehicular Ad hoc Network(DT-VANET), Federated Learning (FL) has shown its ability to provide data privacy. However, Federated learning struggles to adequately train a global model when confronted with data heterogeneity and data sparsity among vehicles, which ensure suboptimal accuracy in making precise predictions for different vehicle types.
Electricity price forecasting is crucial for market participants but remains difficult because prices are volatile, market-specific, and closely tied to anticipated system conditions. Existing supervised methods depend largely on market-specific historical data, limiting their use in newly established or data-scarce markets.
Although Whisper models benefit from large-scale multilingual pre-training, their performance on Burmese medical speech remains limited. This work presents a Burmese medical speech recognition framework built on a high-quality 28-hour corpus recorded and validated by native speakers.
Emergent misalignment (EM) is the phenomenon where fine-tuning a language model on a narrow task leads to harmful behavior in unrelated domains. A leading mechanistic account attributes EM to persona features: latent directions acquired during pre-training that misaligned fine-tuning amplifies.
Spatio-temporal PV data are essential for understanding adoption processes in off-grid regions, yet such data remain largely unavailable. Automated segmentation of remote sensing (RS) imagery offers a promising solution; yet, residential PV systems remain challenging targets because of their small size and sparse distribution, resulting in severe target-background imbalance.
Proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) induce protein degradation by recruiting a target protein to an E3 ubiquitin ligase, making degradation a joint outcome of the degrader molecule and its biological context. Although public databases contain thousands of structured molecule-target-E3 records, degradation measurements are available for only a small fraction of them.
