Rethinking Test-Time Training: Tilting The Latent Distribution For Few-Shot Source-Free Adaptation

Tahir Qasim Syed, Behraj Khan

Often, constraints arise in deployment settings where even lightweight parameter updates e.g. parameter-efficient fine-tuning could induce model shift or tuning instability. We stu…

Technical note on Sequential Test-Time Adaptation via Martingale-Driven Fisher Prompting

Behraj Khan, Tahir Qasim Syed

We present a theoretical framework for M-FISHER, a method for sequential distribution shift detection and stable adaptation in streaming data. For detection, we construct an expone…
