Refining Salience-Aware Sparse Fine-Tuning Strategies for Language Models
Xinxin Liu, Aaron Thomas, Cheng Zhang +3
Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) has gained prominence through low-rank adaptation methods like LoRA. In this paper, we focus on sparsity-based PEFT (SPEFT), which introduces…
Scaling Laws For Mixed Quantization
Zeyu Cao, Boyang Gu, Cheng Zhang +5
Post-training quantization of Large Language Models (LLMs) has proven effective in reducing the memory and computational requirements for inference. In this study, we focus on a st…
Optimised Grouped-Query Attention Mechanism for Transformers
Yuang Chen, Cheng Zhang, Xitong Gao +3
Grouped-query attention (GQA) has been widely adopted in LLMs to mitigate the complexity of multi-head attention (MHA). To transform an MHA to a GQA, neighbour queries in MHA are e…
Unlocking the Global Synergies in Low-Rank Adapters
Zixi Zhang, Cheng Zhang, Xitong Gao +3
Low-rank Adaption (LoRA) has been the de-facto parameter-efficient fine-tuning technique for large language models. We present HeteroLoRA, a light-weight search algorithm that leve…
Fed-Credit: Robust Federated Learning with Credibility Management
Jiayan Chen, Zhirong Qian, Tianhui Meng +3
Aiming at privacy preservation, Federated Learning (FL) is an emerging machine learning approach enabling model training on decentralized devices or data sources. The learning mech…
