BACH: A Bayesian Admixture of Contrastive Heads for Multi-Interest Two-Tower Retrieval

Quoc Phong Nguyen, Paul Albert, Long Vuong +2

Two-tower retrievers compress each user into a single embedding, limiting their ability to serve diverse interests. Multi-interest models give each user several heads scored by a m…

Towards Higher Effective Rank in Parameter-efficient Fine-tuning using Khatri--Rao Product

Paul Albert, Frederic Z. Zhang, Hemanth Saratchandran +2

Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) has become a standard approach for adapting large pre-trained models. Amongst PEFT methods, low-rank adaptation (LoRA) has achieved notable s…

RandLoRA: Full-rank parameter-efficient fine-tuning of large models

Paul Albert, Frederic Z. Zhang, Hemanth Saratchandran +3

Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) and its variants have shown impressive results in reducing the number of trainable parameters and memory requirements of large transformer networks while…

Knowledge Composition using Task Vectors with Learned Anisotropic Scaling

Frederic Z. Zhang, Paul Albert, Cristian Rodriguez-Opazo +2

Pre-trained models produce strong generic representations that can be adapted via fine-tuning. The learned weight difference relative to the pre-trained model, known as a task vect…
