FlowTrain: Flow-Based Decoupled Training for Industrial-Grade Vision-Language Models
Zhida Jiang, Zhaolong Xing, Yang Pei +14
Industrial-grade distributed training of vision-language models (VLMs) remains far less efficient than that of unimodal LLMs. Existing solutions either follow a monolithic design t…
Beyond the Covariance Trap: Unlocking Generalization in Same-Subject Knowledge Editing for Large Language Models
Xiyu Liu, Qingyi Si, Zhengxiao Liu +3
While locate-then-edit knowledge editing efficiently updates knowledge encoded within Large Language Models (LLMs), a critical generalization failure mode emerges in the practical…
System 1&2 Synergy via Dynamic Model Interpolation
Chenxu Yang, Qingyi Si, Chong Tian +6
Training a unified language model that adapts between intuitive System 1 and deliberative System 2 remains challenging due to interference between their cognitive modes. Recent stu…
CBP-Tuning: Efficient Local Customization for Black-box Large Language Models
Jiaxuan Zhao, Naibin Gu, Yuchen Feng +4
The high costs of customizing large language models (LLMs) fundamentally limit their adaptability to user-specific needs. Consequently, LLMs are increasingly offered as cloud-based…
Adapt Once, Thrive with Updates: Transferable Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning on Evolving Base Models
Naibin Gu, Peng Fu, Xiyu Liu +3
Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) has become a common method for fine-tuning large language models, where a base model can serve multiple users through PEFT module switching.…
Causal Path Alignment: Anchoring the Optimization Trajectory for Controllable In-Parameter Knowledge Editing
Xiyu Liu, Zhengxiao Liu, Naibin Gu +2
Knowledge editing is pivotal for efficiently updating the parametric memory of Large Language Models (LLMs), enabling them to function as evolving agents in dynamic environments. H…
BeamLoRA: Beam-Constraint Low-Rank Adaptation
Naibin Gu, Zhenyu Zhang, Xiyu Liu +7
Due to the demand for efficient fine-tuning of large language models, Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) has been widely adopted as one of the most effective parameter-efficient fine-tunin…
Relation Also Knows: Rethinking the Recall and Editing of Factual Associations in Auto-Regressive Transformer Language Models
Xiyu Liu, Zhengxiao Liu, Naibin Gu +4
The storage and recall of factual associations in auto-regressive transformer language models (LMs) have drawn a great deal of attention, inspiring knowledge editing by directly mo…
Light-PEFT: Lightening Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning via Early Pruning
Naibin Gu, Peng Fu, Xiyu Liu +3
Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) has emerged as the predominant technique for fine-tuning in the era of large language models. However, existing PEFT methods still have inade…
