Rapid Switching and Multi-Adapter Fusion via Sparse High Rank Adapters

Kartikeya Bhardwaj, Nilesh Prasad Pandey, Sweta Priyadarshi +9

In this paper, we propose Sparse High Rank Adapters (SHiRA) that directly finetune 1-2% of the base model weights while leaving others unchanged, thus, resulting in a highly sparse…
